Exciton pulses transport excitation and entanglement adiabatically through Rydberg aggregates, assemblies of highly excited light atoms, which are set into directed motion by resonant dipole-dipole interaction. Here, we demonstrate the…
We propose to implement a new kind of solid-state single-photon source based on the recently observed Rydberg blockade effect for excitons in cuprous oxide. The strong interaction between excitons in levels with high principal quantum…
Pulsed laser excitation of a dense ultracold Cs vapor has been used to study the pairwise interactions between Cs atoms excited to $n$p$_{3/2}$ Rydberg states of principal quantum numbers in the range $n=22-36$. Molecular resonances were…
Due to quantum confinement, excitons in finite-sized crystals behave rather differently than in bulk materials. We investigate the dependence of energies of Rydberg excitons on the strengths of parabolic as well as rectangular confinement…
We present a study of even parity Rydberg exciton states in cuprous oxide using time-resolved second harmonic generation (SHG). Excitonic states with principal quantum number n = 5 - 12 were excited by nanosecond pulses around 1143 nm.…
High resolution laser Stark excitation of np (60 < n < 85) Rydberg states of ultra-cold cesium atoms shows an efficient blockade of the excitation attributed to long-range dipole-dipole interaction. The dipole blockade effect is observed as…
We show how to compute the electrooptical functions (absorption, reflection, and transmission) when Rydberg Excitons appear, including the effect of the coherence between the electron-hole pair and the electromagnetic field. With the use of…
The recent observation of dipole-allowed $P$-excitons up to principal quantum numbers of $n=25$ in cuprous oxide has given insight into exciton states with unprecedented spectral resolution. While so far the exciton description as a…
We study the dynamics of up to two Rydberg excitations and the correlation growth in a chain of atoms coupled to a photonic crystal waveguide. In this setup, an excitation can hop from one atom to another via exponentially decaying exchange…
Strong resonant dipole-dipole interactions in flexible Rydberg aggregates enable the formation of exciton pulses, the interplay of atomic motion and electronic excitation transfer which feature high fidelity entanglement transport. Here, we…
Exceptional points are special parameter points in spectra of open quantum systems, at which resonance energies degenerate and the associated eigenvectors coalesce. Typical examples are Rydberg systems in parallel electric and magnetic…
Microwave-optical conversion is key to future networks of quantum devices, such as those based on superconducting technology. Conversion at the single quantum level requires strong nonlinearity, high bandwidth, and compatibility with a…
Excitons, electron-hole pairs bound by the Coulomb potential, are fundamental quasiparticles of coherent light-matter interaction energizing processes from photosynthesis to optoelectronics. Excitons are observed in semiconductors, and…
We have experimentally determined the energies of the ground and first four excited excitonic states of the fundamental optical transition in monolayer WS2, a model system for the growing class of atomically thin two-dimensional…
The dynamics of excitons in a one-dimensional ensemble with partial spatial order are studied. During optical excitation, cold Rydberg atoms spontaneously organize into regular spatial arrangements due to their mutual interactions. This…
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) semiconductors exhibit strong excitonic optical resonances which serve as a microscopic, non-invasive probe into their fundamental properties. Like the hydrogen atom, such excitons can…
Excitons, or bound electron-hole pairs, play a crucial role in the optical response of monolayer, 2H-phase transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). They hold significant promise for the development of novel quantum opto-electronic devices…
The structure and photoexcitation dynamics of high lying doubly excited states of the strontium atom with high angular momenta are studied in the vicinity of the Sr$^+(N=5)$ threshold. The spectra recorded using resonant multiphoton…
The electronic exciton polaron is a hypothetical many-body quasiparticle formed by an exciton dressed with a polarized electron-hole cloud in the Fermi sea (FS). It is predicted to display rich many-body physics and unusual roton-like…
We investigate quantum many-body effects on Rydberg excitons in cuprous oxide induced by the surrounding electron-hole plasma. Line shifts and widths are calculated by full diagonalisation of the plasma Hamiltonian and compared to results…
