A more complex `slicing' of the system can be achieved by increasing the period of the lattice potential. These results are especially relevant for fermionic systems, where interaction effects are in general strongly reduced for a single species at low temperatures.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2004-10-26T19:25:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "confinement control", "optical lattices", "lattice potential", "periodic potential", "free particles" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
