玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚体隧穿时间的实验研究

Experimental investigation of tunneling times using Bose-Einstein condensates

Donatella Ciampini, Oliver Morsch, Ennio Arimondo

摘要:

量子系统完成隧穿事件所花费的时间(在跨势垒隧穿的情况下,可以将其视为在经典禁止区域中花费的时间)与状态演化到正交状态所需的时间有关,并且观察,即,需要在特定基础上的量子力学投影来区分一种状态与另一种状态。我们对加速光晶格中玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚体的朗道-齐纳隧穿进行了时间分辨测量,清楚地分辨出了带布居的阶跃式时间依赖性。使用不同的协议,使我们能够访问隧道概率,在两个不同的基础上,即绝热基础和非绝热基础。绝热基对应于晶格的本征态,非绝热基对应于自由粒子的动量本征态。我们的研究结果铺平了道路,对LZ跃迁,这是目前感兴趣的最佳量子控制和量子速度限制的背景下,隧道时间的定量研究。

英文摘要:

The time it takes a quantum system to complete a tunneling event (which in the case of cross-barrier tunneling can be viewed as the time spent in a classically forbidden area) is related to the time required for a state to evolve to an orthogonal state, and an observation, i.e., a quantum mechanical projection on a particular basis, is required to distinguish one state from another. We have performed time-resolved measurements of Landau-Zener tunneling of Bose-Einstein condensates in accelerated optical lattices, clearly resolving the steplike time dependence of the band populations. The use of different protocols enabled us to access the tunneling probability, in two different bases, namely, the adiabatic basis and the diabatic basis. The adiabatic basis corresponds to the eigenstates of the lattice, and the diabatic one to the freeparticle momentum eigenstates. Our findings pave the way towards more quantitative studies of the tunneling time for LZ transitions, which are of current interest in the context of optimal quantum control and the quantum speed limit.
