SUMMARY:Virtual AMO Seminar: Transport and spectral properties of hot
Fermi-Hubbard systems\, Atomic Physics Seminar\, Waseem Bakr\, Princet
on University
DESCRIPTION:The normal state of high-temperature superconductors exhib
its anomalous transport and spectral properties that are poorly unders
tood. Cold atoms in optical lattices have been used to realize the cel
ebrated Fermi-Hubbard model\, widely believed to capture the essential
physics of these materials. The recent development of fermionic quant
um gas microscopes has enabled studying Hubbard systems with single-si
te resolution and extracting equilibrium charge and spin correlations.
In this talk\, I will report on using a quantum gas microscope to pro
be the transport and spectral properties of atomic Fermi-Hubbard syste
ms. First\, I will describe the development of a technique to measure
microscopic charge diffusion\, and hence resistivity\, in doped Mott i
nsulators. We have found that this resistivity exhibits a linear depen
dence on temperature and violates the Mott-Ioffe-Regel limit\, two sig
natures of strange metallic behavior [1]. Next\, I will discuss how we
used the same technique to observe sub- diffusive charge transport in
tilted Hubbard systems and present a hydrodynamic model that explains
this observation in terms of an interplay of charge and heat transpor
t\, allowing the extraction of the infinite temperature heat diffusivi
ty of the system [2]. Finally\, I will describe the development of ang
le-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) for Hubbard systems and
its application to studying pseudogap physics in an attractive Hubbar
d system across the BEC-BCS crossover [3]\, setting the stage for futu
re studies of the pseudogap regime in repulsive Hubbard systems.
