Quantifying the impact of state mixing on the Rydberg excitation blockade
The Rydberg excitation blockade has been at the heart of an impressive array of recent achievements; however, state-mixing interactions can compromise its efficiency. When ultracold atoms are excited to Rydberg states near Förster resonance, up to ∼50% of atoms can be found in dipole coupled product...
