Frequency comb based multidimensional coherent spectroscopy is a novel optical method that enables high resolution measurement in a short acquisition time. The methods resolution makes multidimensional coherent spectroscopy relevant for atomic systems that have narrow resonances. We use double-quantum multidimensional coherent spectroscopy to reveal collective hyperfine resonances in rubidium vapor at 100 C induced by dipole-dipole interactions. We observe tilted lineshapes in the double-quantum 2D spectra, which has never been reported for Doppler-broadened systems. The tilted lineshapes suggest that the signal is predominately from the interacting atoms that have near zero relative velocity.

We report the observation of double-quantum coherence signals in a gas of potassium atoms at twice the frequency of the one-quantum coherences. Since a single atom does not have a state at the corresponding energy, this observation must be attributed to a collective resonance involving multiple atoms. These resonances are induced by weak inter-atomic dipole-dipole interactions, which means that the atoms cannot be treated in isolation, even at a low density of $10^{12}$ cm$^{-3}$.
Quantum simulators employing cold atoms are among the most promising approaches to tackle quantum many-body problems. Nanophotonic structures are widely employed to engineer the bandstructure of light and are thus investigated as a means to tune the interactions between atoms placed in their vicinity. A key shortcoming of this approach is that excitations can decay into free photons, limiting the coherence of such quantum simulators. Here, we overcome this challenge by proposing to use a simple cubic three-dimensional array of atoms to produce an omnidirectional bandgap for light and show that it enables coherent, dissipation-free interactions between embedded impurities. We show explicitly that the band gaps persist for moderate lattice sizes and finite filling fraction, which makes this effect readily observable in experiment. Our work paves the way toward analogue spin quantum simulators with long-range interactions using ultracold atomic lattices, and is an instance of the emerging field of atomic quantum metamaterials.

We show that nuclear motion of Rydberg atoms can be induced by resonant dipole-dipole interactions that trigger the energy transfer between two energetically close Rydberg states. How and if the atoms move depends on their initial arrangement as well as on the initial electronic excitation. Using a mixed quantum/classical propagation scheme we obtain the trajectories and kinetic energies of atoms, initially arranged in a regular chain and prepared in excitonic eigenstates. The influence of off-diagonal disorder on the motion of the atoms is examined and it is shown that irregularity in the arrangement of the atoms can lead to an acceleration of the nuclear dynamics.
For tunable control of asymmetric light reflection, we propose a Rydberg atomic system of the optical response varying in space induced by the long-range position-dependent Rydberg dipole-dipole interaction either in the type of self-van der Waals di pole-dipole interaction or the cross F{o}rster-like dipole-dipole exchange interaction. In such a one-dimensional system consisting of a control atomic driven upon the Rydberg state and a homogeneous target atomic ensemble, the non-localized action from the control atom on the target atoms gradually decreases with the distance between the control and target atoms. Our scheme yields a nonlinear correspondence from a finite spectra range to a finite spatial range of susceptibility via the nonlinear characteristics of Rydberg interaction relative to the position. Therefore, the asymmetric reflection can be induced via the spatial modulation on the target ensemble. In particular, the reflection from one direction can be completely suppressed when the absorption and dispersion parts of the susceptibility are modulated to satisfy the spatial Kramers-Kronig relation in an infinite spectral range. The opposite reflection exhibits a band of a small nonzero reflectivity due to the realistic restriction of the cold atomic density of a relatively small value. Thus, via trapping the target atoms in the optical lattice for the Bragg scattering, we enhance the nonzero reflection obviously and retain the directional reflectionlessness.
We consider a trapped cigar-shaped atomic Bose-Einstein condensate irradiated by a single far-off resonance laser polarized along the cigar axis. The resulting laser induced dipole-dipole interactions between the atoms significantly change size of th e condensate, and can even cause its self-trapping.
