Shuttling of Rydberg ions for fast entangling operations (2019)
Journal Article
VOGEL, J., LI, W., MOKHBERI, A., LESANOVSKY, I., & SCHMIDT-KALER, F. (2019). Shuttling of Rydberg ions for fast entangling operations. Physical Review Letters, 123(15), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.123.153603

We introduce a scheme to entangle Rydberg ions in a linear ion crystal, using the high electric polarizability of the Rydberg electronic states in combination with mutual Coulomb coupling of ions that establishes common modes of motion. After laser i... Read More about Shuttling of Rydberg ions for fast entangling operations.

Nonlinear light diffraction by electromagnetically induced gratings with PT symmetry in a Rydberg atomic gas (2019)
Journal Article
Hang, C., Li, W., & Huang, G. (2019). Nonlinear light diffraction by electromagnetically induced gratings with PT symmetry in a Rydberg atomic gas. Physical Review A, 100(4), 1-13. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.100.043807

Understanding and manipulating the non-Hermitian optical property based on coherent atomic gases is of great importance and has attracted much theoretical and experimental attentions. Advancing this study to the nonlinear optics regime is highly desi... Read More about Nonlinear light diffraction by electromagnetically induced gratings with PT symmetry in a Rydberg atomic gas.

Exploring nonequilibrium phases of the generalized Dicke model with a trapped Rydberg-ion quantum simulator (2019)
Journal Article
Gambetta, F. M., Lesanovsky, I., & Li, W. (2019). Exploring nonequilibrium phases of the generalized Dicke model with a trapped Rydberg-ion quantum simulator. Physical Review A, 100(2), Article 022513. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.100.022513

Trapped ions are a versatile platform for the investigation of quantum many-body phenomena, in particular for the study of scenarios where long-range interactions are mediated by phonons. Recent experiments have shown that the trapped ion platform ca... Read More about Exploring nonequilibrium phases of the generalized Dicke model with a trapped Rydberg-ion quantum simulator.

Stable single light bullets and vortices and their active control in cold Rydberg gases (2019)
Journal Article
Bai, Z., Li, W., & Huang, G. (2019). Stable single light bullets and vortices and their active control in cold Rydberg gases. Optica, 6(3), 309-317. https://doi.org/10.1364/OPTICA.6.000309

Realizing single light bullets and vortices that are stable in high dimensions is a long-standing goal in the study of nonlinear optical physics. On the other hand, the storage and retrieval of such stable high dimensional optical pulses may offer a...
