2 Outline ydberg-ydberg interaction Long-range dipole dipole interaction between ydberg atoms. Some current research topics with interacting ydberg atoms/ensembles
3 Long-range dipole dipole interaction between ydberg atoms
4 Interaction of two classical static dipoles V dd 1 2 Some special cases: μ 1 μ 2 Attractive epulsive
5 Permanent Dipole of ydberg Stark states in E-field Permanent Dipoles in E fields esonant dipole-dipole (almost like classical interaction between static dipoles) μ 2 The resulting of linear Stark effects have permanent electric dipoles: ψ ± r ψ ± 0 while ψ ± are superposition of different l states. μ 1 E
6 Interaction of two synchronously oscillating classical dipoles 1 z1 cost z cost 2 2 μ 2 V dd μ 1 The interaction is essentially the same but reduced by a factor of two due to the time averaging of the dipoles. NOTE We always assume that we are in the near field regime. 2c and we ignore the radiation field.
7 Dipole dipole interaction of two ydberg atoms The quantum version of oscillating dipoles is the interaction between transition dipole moments. One example Atomic states np ns ns, np μ 1μ 2 and ns, np V dd np, ns 0 np, ns = ns μ 1 np np μ 2 ns 0 E( ns, np ) = E( np, ns ) States of two atoms (Pair states or Diatomic states) Atom 1 ns, np Pair states d-d interaction or nsnp np, ns Atom 2 npns H V dd nsnp npns 12 0 n 4, E ± = ± μ 1μ 2

10 esonance d-d interaction vs Van der Waals interaction resonance dipole-dipole interactions van der Waals (off-resonance d-d) If V dd (at large ) H Hamiltonian 20s20s Vdd ~ 1/ n 19p20p 12 n 4, Potential Curves 4 n ~ 12 n (d - d) 11 ~ 6 (vdw) W = V dd 2 W = ± V dd 2, + V 2 dd ~ n11 6 So van der Waals interaction, C 6 6 Where C 6 n 11 If V dd (at small ) W = ±V dd ~ n4 Dipole-dipole interaction
11 Energy Energy Tuning the dipole-dipole interaction with E-field Energy 2 E np (F 0 ) = E ns (F 0 ) + E (n+1)s (F 0 ) E (n+1)s (F) E np (F) E ns (F) (n+1)s (n-1)d 5/2 np /2 ns H V dd ss' pp n 21 2 F 4 E pp pp ss' 2 ss' V 2 dd F 0 (n-1)d 5/2 (n-1)d 5/2 2V dd + For n = 42 Pour n 42 ns (n 1)s - ss np /2 np /2 F F 0 F
12 Some details of dipole-dipole interaction Consider the nsnp npns pair states, which are coupled by the dipole-dipole coupling ns, np V dd np, ns = µ 2 E( ns, np ) = E( np, ns ) µ nsnp V dd npns nsnp 1 2 npns There are two natural choices for an axis of quantization The internuclear axis The direction suggested by a field, which might produce the dipoles, messy but possible.
13 The internuclear axis as the quantization axis The nsnp npns pair states with the internuclear axis chosen as the quantization axis, in the z direction. The dipole dipole matrix element becomes = x1x 2 + y1 y2-2z1z2 nsnp Vdd npns = nsnp npns nsnp V npns = ns np V np ns dd dd ns x np np x ns + ns y np np y ns - 2 ns z np np z ns Angular momentum is conserved, so we construct states of total angular momentum M along the quantization axis using M = m1+ m2
14 Using basis states of the form nsnp there are six states, two each of M=0, 1, and -1. For example the M=0 states are nsnp 0 and np 0 ns, with the Hamiltonian matrix H nsnp 0 V dd 0 V np Where the matrix element is given explicitly by 0 0 dd ns The two M=0 eigenvalues and eigen states are 2 W Vdd nsnp npns 2 nsnp npns 2,, One of the eigenstates is symmetric in the interchange of the two atoms, and one is antisymmetric, W W V dd 2 2 Vdd antisymmetric V dd = - 2 ns z np np z ns symmetric
15 There are analogous 2x2 matrices for the M=1 and M=-1 states, which also give symmetric and antisymmetric states symmetric antisymmetric Solid lines are M=0 states Broken lines are M=1 and -1 states. There are two M=1 and two M=-1 states.
16 eturn to the case of the nsns np(n-1)p pairs M=0 for example Δ nsns np(n-1)p (n-1)pnp The Hamiltonian matrix of the three M=0 states where H nsns 0 V V dd dd np 0 (n-1)p 0 V dd 0 (n-1)p 0 np 0 V dd 0 V dd = - 2 ns z np np z ns The three eigen energies are W W V dd
17 The energy levels Δ nsns np(n1)p (n-1)pnp There is a state with no shift degeneracy of the p pairs The shift changes from 1/ 6 to 1/ when V~Δ, from a van der Waals to a dipole-dipole interaction
18 Fine, but quite real details The spin orbit splittings must be taken into account Often only one spin orbit coupled state is important. In b and Cs np /2 np /2 Is resonant with ns(n+1)s but np 1/2 np 1/2 is not.. There are smaller matrix elements. There are more states. The Zeeman degeneracy leads to states with no shift. -Kiffner, Walker and Saffman We have already seen an example of this.
19 Calculated van der Waals shifts from Walker and Saffman (2007) Note these are calculated with the internuclear axis as the quantization axis

22 Dipole blockade in mesoscopic ensembles (principle) Only one ydberg atom can be excited inside the blockade sphere.
23 Dipole blockade in mesoscopic ensembles (possible applications) If the radius is smaller than the blockade radius, the only accessible state is the symmetric Dicke state with 1 ydberg excitation.

32 Excitation blockade and collective excitations
33 Early experimental evidence When the volume size is larger than the blockade radius, several atoms can excited to the ydberg states in the atomic cloud. However, there is rapid saturation of the excitation. Number of excited atoms ~ V sample /V blockade Blockade sphere Proper definition of dipole blockade radius b is: Ω N b = C p b p where N b is the number of atoms contained in the blockade sphere.
