Laser-Induced Kondo Effect in Ultracold Alkaline-Earth Fermions
Laser-Induced Kondo Effect in Ultracold Alkaline-Earth Fermions
We demonstrate that laser excitations can coherently induce a novel Kondo effect in ultracold atoms in optical lattices. Using a model of alkaline-earth fermions with two orbitals, it is shown that the optically coupled two internal states are dynamically entangled to form the Kondo-singlet state, overcoming the heating effect due …
