Journal Article
Lan, Z., Minář, J., Levi, E., Li, W., & Lesanovsky, I. (2015). Emergent devil's staircase without particle-hole symmetry in Rydberg quantum gases with competing attractive and repulsive interactions. Physical Review Letters, 115, Article 203001. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.115.203001

The devil's staircase is a fractal structure that characterizes the ground state of one-dimensional classical lattice gases with long-range repulsive convex interactions. Its plateaus mark regions of stability for specific filling fractions which are...

Coherence in a cold atom photon transistor (2015)
Journal Article
Li, W., & Lesanovsky, I. (2015). Coherence in a cold atom photon transistor. Physical Review A, 92(4), Article 043828. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.92.043828

Recent experiments have realized an all-optical photon transistor using a cold atomic gas. This approach relies on electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in conjunction with the strong interaction among atoms excited to high-lying Rydberg sta...

Non-equilibrium universality in the dynamics of dissipative cold atomic gases (2015)
Journal Article
Marcuzzi, M., Levi, E., Li, W., Garrahan, J. P., Olmos, B., & Lesanovsky, I. (2015). Non-equilibrium universality in the dynamics of dissipative cold atomic gases. New Journal of Physics, 17(July), Article 72003. https://doi.org/10.1088/1367-2630/17/7/072003

The theory of continuous phase transitions predicts the universal collective properties of a physical system near a critical point, which for instance manifest in characteristic power-law behaviours of physical observables. The well-established conce... Read More about Non-equilibrium universality in the dynamics of dissipative cold atomic gases.

Phase-imprinting of Bose-Einstein condensates with Rydberg impurities (2015)
Journal Article
Mukherjee, R., Ates, C., Li, W., & Wüster, S. (2015). Phase-imprinting of Bose-Einstein condensates with Rydberg impurities. Physical Review Letters, 115(4), 1-6. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.115.040401

We show how the phase profile of Bose-Einstein condensates can be engineered through its in- teraction with localized Rydberg excitations. The interaction is made controllable and long-range by off-resonantly coupling the condensate to another Rydber...

Spin correlations as a probe of quantum synchronization in trapped ion phonon-lasers (2015)
Journal Article
Hush, M. R., Li, W., Genway, S., Lesanovsky, I., & Armour, A. (2015). Spin correlations as a probe of quantum synchronization in trapped ion phonon-lasers. Physical Review A, 91, Article 061401. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.91.061401

We investigate quantum synchronization theoretically in a system consisting of two cold ions in microtraps. The ions' motion is damped by a standing-wave laser whilst also being driven by a blue-detuned laser which results in self-oscillation. Workin...
