Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the theoretical study, we examined how ultracold atoms captured near the potential minimum in a parabolic trap would behave under the influence of amplitude modulation of the optical lattice. A detailed comparison with the experiments carried out at University of Hamburg showed that attenuation of the hole state in the experiment occurs more rapidly than in the numerical calculation. We found that in a completely isolated lattice system, the hole dynamics has a very long coherence time. On the experimental side, we aimed to realize the quantum simulation of quantum many-body system using laser-cooled Rb atoms in a micro-light-trap array. We can create a quantum entanglement state involving at most 4 atoms, and we are close to realizing quantum simulation of a quantum-spin system.
