Description

Optical lattice-based quantum simulators are ideal platforms to study correlated systems and non-ergodic dynamics on the single-atom level. In those systems, the lattice structure is typically fixed by a static beam geometry, restricting mid-sequence adaptations. Here, we present our recent progress in implementing passively phase-stable tuneable optical lattices, allowing us to dynamically switch between various geometries mid-sequence. Our presented technology further enables spin- and doublon-resolved imaging in 2D, doublon preparation, local current and kinetic energy readout in 1D, and high-fidelity preparation of Mott-Insulators. This extended toolbox will allow us to investigate non-ergodic systems with unprecedented readout capabilities.
