FIG 1.  Experimental setup.  The Rydberg laser and the Raman lasers are  aligned along the x axis.  Two optical tweezers are formed by two lasers  with an angular separation θ..  In this setup, eight electrodes control the electric fields near the trapped atoms.  The bias magnetic field is applied along the x axis.

Demonstration of the Jaynes-Cummings ladder with Rydberg-dressed atoms
April 17, 2017
The Jaynes-Cummings model, a widely employed theoretical framework in cavity quantum electrodynamics, is experimentally tested on a platform involving Rydberg-blockaded atomic ensembles. The work opens the way to a richer exploration of protocols for quantum control or, more broadly, quantum computing.
