We show that in certain parameter regimes there is a macroscopic dynamical breakdown of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation. Stochastic field equations for coupled atomic and molecular condensates are derived using the functional positive- P representation. These equations describe the full quantum state of the coupled condensates and include the commonly used Gross-Pitaevskii equation as the noisele...

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...

The development of methods for completely determining the quantum state of an atom or cavity field @1# continues to be an important issue in atomic physics. For example, in the field of quantum optics, schemes have been recently proposed, based on the Stem-Gerlach effect, for completely determining the quantum state of an atom as a way of fully characterizing the quantized electromagnetic field...

Quantum effects, structures and phase transitions in Nano-systems have been analyzed. An overview is given on the results of our computations on structural and elastic properties of model colloids, on phase transitions of model colloids in external fields, and on structural and electronic properties of stretched atomic wires.  2005 Elsevier B.V.

We suggest interfacing nanomechanical systems via an optical quantum bus to atomic ensembles, for which means of high precision state preparation, manipulation, and measurement are available. This allows, in particular, for a quantum nondemolition Bell measurement, projecting the coupled system, atomic-ensemble-nanomechanical resonator, into an entangled EPR state. The entanglement is observabl...

The present work focuses on two types of quantum wire structures which were grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). First, the sidewall quantum wires based on the selective growth on mesa stripe patterned GaAs(311)A are studied. Single stacked sidewall quantum wires with strong electronic coupling have been fabricated. p-i-n type LEDs of the quantum wires employing the amphoteric Si incorporatio...

Abstract. We consider a new approach for storing quantum information by macroscopic atomic excitations of two level atomic system. We offer the original scheme of quantum cloning of optical field into the cavity polaritons containing the phase insensitive parametrical amplifier and atomic cell placed in the cavity. The high temperature quasi-condensation (and/or condensation) phenomenon for pol...

Quantum entanglement plays an essential role in quantum information processing and quantum networks. One of the commonly-used methods to generate multiple entangled fields is to employ polarizing beam splitters. However, nonclassical input light fields are required and the generated entangled fields are always degenerate in such case. Here, we present a proof-of-principle demonstration of an ef...
