Observartion of itinerant ferromagnetism in a strongly interacting Fermi gas of ultracold atoms

Ferromagnetism of delocalized (itinerant) fermions occurs due to repulsive interactions and the exchange energy which reduces the interaction energy for spin polarized domains due to the Pauli exclusion principle.  At a critical interaction, given by the so-called Stoner criterion [1], they system spontaneously develops domains and becomes ferromagnetic.  This, together with a suitable band structure...

Realization of high selectivity ion qubit addressing scheme

Selectively addressing individual qubits in an array of ions is a vital task for scalable quantum computation with trapped ions.  Traditionally, this is accomplished using complex optics for laser beam steering, but such schemes are not easily scalable.  We have realized a scalable alternative which employs the advantages of microfabrication and cryogenic operation, and applies...
