Quantum spin liquids: from Rydberg atoms to the high temperature superconductors

20.05.2022 10:30 – 12:00

Quantum spin liquids are remarkable phases of matter in which quantum entanglement is, in a precise sense, truly long-ranged. I will describe realization of quantum spin liquid correlations in recent experiments on pumped Rydberg atoms trapped in arrays of optical tweezers. I will also describe how recent theories of quantum spin liquids in metallic states provide a description of observations in the “pseudogap” state of the cuprate high temperature superconductors.
