• Abstract summary: In optical lattice clock systems deep lattice potentials are used to trap ultra-cold atoms. decoherence, induced by Raman scattering, can significantly be reduced if atomic clocks are realized in shallow optical lattices. We demonstrate that the Rabi frequency and the Bloch bands can be tuned, simultaneously and independently.

• Abstract: Quantum metrology with ultra-high precision usually requires atoms prepared in an ultra-stable environment with well-defined quantum states. Thus, in optical lattice clock systems deep lattice potentials are used to trap ultra-cold atoms. However, decoherence, induced by Raman scattering and higher order light shifts, can significantly be reduced if atomic clocks are realized in shallow optical lattices. On the other hand, in such lattices, tunneling among different sites can cause additional dephasing and strongly broadening of the Rabi spectrum. Here, in our experiment, we periodically drive a shallow $^{87}$Sr optical lattice clock. Counter intuitively, shaking the system can deform the wide broad spectral line into a sharp peak with 5.4Hz line-width. With careful comparison between the theory and experiment, we demonstrate that the Rabi frequency and the Bloch bands can be tuned, simultaneously and independently. Our work not only provides a different idea for quantum metrology, such as building shallow optical lattice clock in outer space, but also paves the way for quantum simulation of new phases of matter by engineering exotic spin orbit couplings.

• Many-body gap protection of motional dephasing of an optical clock transition [0.0]
  Quantum simulation and metrology with atoms, ions, and molecules often rely on using light fields to manipulate their internal states. absorbed momentum from the light fields can induce spin-orbit coupling and associated motional-induced (Doppler) dephasing. We experimentally demonstrate the suppression of Doppler dephasing on a strontium optical clock transition by enabling atomic interactions through a shared mode.

  We demonstrate spin squeezing in a neutral-atom optical clock based on a programmable array of interacting optical qubits. We observe a fractional stability of $1.087(1)times 10-15$ at one-second averaging time, which is 1.94(1) dB below the standard quantum limit. The realization of this spin-squeezing protocol in a programmable atom-array clock opens the door to a wide range of quantum-information inspired techniques.

  We report trapping of single ultracold atom in an optical trap that can be continuously tuned from a standard Airy focus to a subwavelength hotspot smaller than the usual Abbe's diffraction limit. We argue that superoscillatory trapping and continuous potential tuning offer not only a way to generate compact and tenable ensembles of trapped atoms for quantum simulators but will also be useful in single molecule quantum chemistry.

We show in exact diagonalization simulations of the one-dimensional $t-J$ model that the spinons start to populate previously unoccupied states in an effective band structure. The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.

We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
