We investigate the experimental control of pair tunneling in a double-well potential using Floquet engineering. We demonstrate a crossover from a regime with density-assisted tunneling to dominant pair tunneling by tuning the effective interactions. Furthermore, we show that the pair tunneling rate can be enhanced not only compared to the Floquet-reduced single-particle tunneling but even beyond the static superexchange rate, while keeping the effective interaction in a relevant range. This opens possibilities to realize models with explicit pair tunneling in ultracold atomic systems.

Feshbach hypothesis of high-Tc superconductivity in cuprates.

Nat Commun

January 2025

Department of Physics and Arnold Sommerfeld Center for Theoretical Physics (ASC), Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, München, Germany.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores strong pairing mechanisms in many-body physics, particularly through a Feshbach perspective, focusing on interactions in Fermi-Hubbard models related to doped Mott insulators.
  • It theorizes the presence of a low-energy excited state of two holes that facilitates near-resonant interactions, which aligns with observed behaviors in cuprate materials.
  • The authors propose experimental methods like cARPES and pair-tunneling measurements to test their theories, suggesting a link between emergent Feshbach resonances and superconductivity in antiferromagnetic Mott insulators.

Thermophotovoltaics, devices that convert thermal infrared photons to electricity, offer a key pathway for a variety of critical renewable energy technologies including thermal energy storage, waste heat recovery, and direct solar-thermal power generation. However, conventional far-field devices struggle to generate reasonable powers at lower temperatures. Near-field thermophotovoltaics provide a pathway to substantially higher powers by leveraging photon tunneling effects.

The hybrid ferromagnet-superconductor heterostructures have attracted extensive attention as they potentially host topological superconductivity. Relevant experimental signatures have recently been reported in CrBr/NbSe ferromagnet-superconductor heterostructure, but controversies remain. Here, we reinvestigate CrBr/NbSe by an ultralow temperature scanning tunneling microscope with higher spatial and energy resolutions.
