Optical realization of two-boson tunneling dynamics

arXiv:1111.3487 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.83.043835

Abstract

An optical realization of the tunneling dynamics of two interacting bosons in a double-well potential, based on light transport in a four-core microstructured fiber, is proposed. The optical setting enables to visualize in a purely classical system the entire crossover from Rabi oscillations to correlated pair tunneling and to tunneling of a fragmented pair in the fermionization limit.
