Tunable gauge potential for spinless particles in driven lattices

Tunable gauge potential for spinless particles in driven lattices

We present a universal method to create a tunable, artificial vector gauge potential for neutral particles trapped in an optical lattice. A suitable periodic shaking of the lattice allows to engineer a Peierls phase for the hopping parameters. This scheme thus allows one to address the atomic intern...
