We report on the first direct observation of coherent control of single particle tunneling in a strongly driven double well potential. In our setup atoms propagate in a periodic arrangement of double wells allowing the full control of the driving parameters such as frequency, amplitude and even the space-time symmetry. Our experimental findings are in quantitative agreement with the predictions of the corresponding Floquet theory and are also compared to the predictions of a simple two mode model. Our experiments reveal directly the critical dependence of coherent destruction of tunneling on the generalized parity symmetry.

We study the tunneling of a small ensemble of strongly repulsive bosons in a one-dimensional triple-well potential. The usual treatment within the single-band approximation suggests suppression of tunneling in the strong interaction regime. However,
we show that several windows of enhanced tunneling are opened in this regime. This enhanced tunneling results from higher band contributions, and has the character of interband tunneling. It can give rise to various tunneling processes, such as single-boson tunneling and two-boson correlated tunneling of the ensemble of bosons, and is robust against deformations of the triple well potential. We introduce a basis of generalized number states including all contributing bands to explain the interband tunneling, and demonstrate various processes of interband tunneling and its robustness by numerically exact calculation.
We propose a new two--qubit phase gate for ultra--cold atoms confined in an experimentally realized tilted double--well optical lattice [Sebby--Strabley et al., Phys. Rev. A {bf 73} 033605 (2006)]. Such a lattice is capable of confining pairs of atom
s in a two--dimensional array of double--well potentials where control can be exercised over the barrier height and the energy difference of the minima of the two wells (known as the ``tilt). The four lowest single--particle motional states consist of two pairs of motional states in which each pair is localized on one side of the central barrier, allowing for two atoms confined in such a lattice to be spatially separated qubits. We present a time--dependent scheme to manipulate the tilt to induce tunneling oscillations which produce a collisional phase gate. Numerical simulations demonstrate that this gate can be performed with high fidelity.
The new generation of planar Penning traps promises to be a flexible and versatile tool for quantum information studies. Here, we propose a fully controllable and reversible way to change the typical trapping harmonic potential into a double-well pot
ential, in the axial direction. In this configuration a trapped particle can perform coherent oscillations between the two wells. The tunneling rate, which depends on the barrier height and width, can be adjusted at will by varying the potential difference applied to the trap electrodes. Most notably, tunneling rates in the range of kHz are achievable even with a trap size of the order of 100 microns.
We demonstrate a microfabricated surface-electrode ion trap that is applicable as a nanofriction emulator and studies of many-body dynamics of interacting systems. The trap enables both single-well and double-well trapping potentials in the radial di
rection, where the distance between the two potential wells can be adjusted by the applied RF voltage. In the double-well configuration, parallel ion strings can be formed, which is a suitable system for the emulation of the Frenkel-Kontorova (FK) model. We derive the condition under which the trap functions as a FK model emulator. The trap is designed so that the Coulomb interaction between two ion strings becomes significant. We report on the microfabrication process for such downsized trap electrodes and experimental results of single-well and double-well operation with calcium ions. With the trap demonstrated in this work we can create atomically accessible, self-assembled Coulomb systems with a wide tuning range of the corrugation parameter in the FK model. This makes it a promising system for quantum simulations, but also for the study of nanofriction in one and higher dimensional systems.
A parametrized double-well potential is proposed to address the issue of the impact of shape deformability of some bistable physical systems, on their quantum dynamics and classical statistical mechanics. The parametrized double-well potential posses
ses two fixed degenerate minima and a constant barrier height, but a tunable shape of its walls influencing the confinement of the two symmetric wells. The transition from quantum tunneling to classical crossover is investigated and it is found that unlike the bistable model based on the Ginzburg-Landau energy functional, so-called $phi^4$ potential model, members of the family of parametrized double-well potentials can display a first-order transition above a universal critical value of the shape deformability parameter. Addressing their statistical mechanics within the framework of the transfer-integral operator formalism, the classical partition function is constructed with emphasis on low-lying eigenstates of the resulting Schrodinger-type equation. The quasi-exact solvability of this last equation to find the exact expression of the partition function, is shown to depend on a specific relationship between the shape deformability parameter and the thermodynamic temperature. The quasi-exact solvability condition is expressed analytically, and with this condition some exact wavefunctions and corresponding eigenenergies are derived at several temperatures. The exact probability densities obtained from the analytical expressions of the groundstate wavefunctions at different temperatures, are found to be in excellent agreement with the probability density from the Langevin dynamics. This agreement makes it possible to study probability density-based thermodynamics via Langevin techniques.
