Enhancing the thermal stability of Majorana fermions with redundancy using dipoles in optical lattices.
Pairing between spinless fermions can generate Majorana fermion excitations that exhibit intriguing properties arising from nonlocal correlations. But, simple models indicate that nonlocal correlation between Majorana fermions becomes unstable at nonzero temperatures. We address this issue by showing that anisotropic interactions between dipolar fermions in optical lattices can be used to signi...
متن کاملBifermionic Superfluidity in Toroidal Optical Lattices
We consider a gas of neutral fermions trapped in a specific optical trap that provides a tight confinement of a Fermi gas in a torus with a potential periodic along the azimuthal direction. The effective model is interacting fermions moving in a periodic potential along the ring. We show that the model demonstrates a novel type of superfluidity different from the BCS mechanism. This pure 1D qua...
متن کاملInteraction-driven Lifshitz transition with dipolar fermions in optical lattices
The following full text is a preprint version which may differ from the publisher's version. Anisotropic dipole-dipole interactions between ultracold dipolar fermions break the symmetry of the Fermi surface and thereby deform it. Here we demonstrate that such a Fermi surface deformation induces a topological phase transition – so-called Lifshitz transition – in the regime accessible to present-...
متن کاملEnsemble quantum-information processing by NMR: Implementation of gates and the creation of pseudopure states using dipolar coupled spins as qubits
Quantum-information processing is carried out using dipolar coupled spins and high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance ~NMR!. The systems chosen are the dipolar coupled methyl protons of CH3CN partially oriented in a liquid crystalline matrix yielding a two-qubit system and dipolar coupled C and methyl protons of CH3CN also partially oriented in the liquid crystalline matrix, yielding a three...
متن کاملEmergent kinetics and fractionalized charge in 1D spin-orbit coupled flatband optical lattices.
Recent ultracold atomic gas experiments implementing synthetic spin-orbit coupling allow access to flatbands that emphasize interactions. We model spin-orbit coupled fermions in a one-dimensional flatband optical lattice. We introduce an effective Luttinger-liquid theory to show that interactions generate collective excitations with emergent kinetics and fractionalized charge, analogous to prop...
