Nanoplasmonic planar traps - a tool for engineering p-wave interactions


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Engineering strong p-wave interactions between fermions is one of the challenges in modern quantum physics. Such interactions are responsible for a plethora of fascinating quantum phenomena such as topological quantum liquids and exotic superconductors. In this letter we propose to combine recent developments of nanoplasmonics with the progress in realizing laser-induced gauge fields. Nanoplasmonics allows for strong confinement leading to a geometric resonance in the atom-atom scattering. In combination with the laser-coupling of the atomic states, this is shown to result in the desired interaction. We illustrate how this scheme can be used for the stabilization of strongly correlated fractional quantum Hall states in ultracold fermionic gases.
