Observation of a tripartite quantum phase for coexisting extended, localized, and critical states

The disordered quantum world hosts three fundamental types of states: extended, localized, and critical, of which the critical states are confined to fine-tuned critical points or mobility edges in randomly disordered systems. The tripartite phase, with all three types of states coexisting over finite spectral windows, represents a hallmark distinction between quasiperiodic and truly random systems in the localization physics. Here, we report the realization of this exotic phase in a quasi-periodically driven orbital optical lattice with ultracold atoms. The optical lattice with a quasiperiodic Floquet modulation coupling s and p orbitals is realized in experiment and shown to host the tripartite phase from exact theory. We develop a two-stage protocol to precisely prepare and detect the three types of quantum states. The characteristic exponents of these states are determined from expansion dynamics, showing their distinct universal transport properties. Our study marks a significant advancement in exploring unconventional critical phenomena and localization physics with ultracold atoms.

A Radio-Frequency Emitter Design for the Low-Frequency Regime in Atomic Experiments

Radio-frequency (RF) control is a key technique in cold atom experiments. We present a compact and efficient RF circuit based on a capacitive transformer network, where a low-frequency coil operating up to 30MHz serves as both an intrinsic inductor and a power-sharing element. The design enables high current delivery and flexible impedance matching across a wide frequency range. We integrate both broadband and narrowband RF networks into a unified configuration that overcomes the geometric constraints imposed by the metallic chamber. In evaporative cooling, the broadband network allows a reduction of the applied RF input power from 14.7dBW to -3.5dBW, owing to its non-zero coil current even at ultra-low frequencies. This feature enables the Bose-Fermi mixture to be cooled below 10{\mu}K. In a Landau-Zener protocol, the coil driven by the narrowband network transfers 80% of rubidium atoms from |F = 2,mF = 2> to |2,-2> in 1 millisecond, achieving a Rabi frequency of approximately 9 kHz at an input power of 0.1dBW.
