Supersensitive rotation sensor from superintegrability

Detection based on quantum principles such as entanglement has the capacity to achieve finessed levels of sensitivity, bringing transformative impacts to applications. In this study, we propose a rotation sensor using ultra-cold dipolar atoms trapped in a four-well configuration. The design, based on a simple population imbalance measurement to quantify rotation, profits from the property of superintegrability. The implementation of the measurement protocol achieves rotation-detection sensitivity beyond the Heisenberg limit. Our results spotlight superintegrability opportunities for advancing the field of quantum sensing.

Subtle Nuances between Quantum and Classical regimes

This study explores the semiclassical limit of an integrable-chaotic bosonic many-body quantum system, providing nuanced insights into its behavior. We examine classical-quantum correspondences across different interaction regimes of bosons in a triple-well potential, ranging from the integrable to the self-trapping regime, and including the chaotic one. The close resemblance between the phase-space mean projections of classical trajectories and those of Husimi distributions evokes the Principle of Uniform Semiclassical Condensation (PUSC) of Wigner functions of eigenstates. Notably, the resulting figures also exhibit patterns reminiscent of Jason Gallas's "shrimp" shapes.

Integrable atomtronic interferometry

High sensitivity quantum interferometry requires more than just access to entangled states. It is achieved through deep understanding of quantum correlations in a system. Integrable models offer the framework to develop this understanding. We communicate the design of interferometric protocols for an integrable model that describes the interaction of bosons in a four-site configuration. Analytic formulae for the quantum dynamics of certain observables are computed. These expose the system's functionality as both an interferometric identifier, and producer, of NOON states. Being equivalent to a controlled-phase gate acting on two hybrid qudits, this system also highlights an equivalence between Heisenberg-limited interferometry and quantum information. These results are expected to open new avenues for integrability-enhanced atomtronic technologies.

Control of tunneling in an atomtronic switching device

The precise control of quantum systems will play a major role in the realization of atomtronic devices. As in the case of electronic systems, a desirable property is the ability to implement switching. Here we show how to implement switching in a model of dipolar bosons confined to three coupled wells. The model describes interactions between bosons, tunneling of bosons between adjacent wells, and the effect of an external field. We conduct a study of the quantum dynamics of the system to probe the conditions under which switching behavior can occur. The analysis considers both integrable and non-integrable regimes within the model. Through variation of the external field, we demonstrate how the system can be controlled between various switched-on and switched-off configurations.
