Quantum gas microscope reveals individual atoms in first tunable three-component Hubbard system
Phys.org ·
The Brief
- An international team from Germany, Thailand, India, China and the United States created a three-component Hubbard system with tunable interactions in the lab.
- The team used a quantum gas microscope to image individual atoms in the system.
- The source describes this as the first tunable three-component Hubbard system of its kind.
Why it matters
It gives physicists a laboratory platform with adjustable interactions for simulating many-body quantum systems, which can help test theories of strongly correlated matter.
