Tunable atomic spin-orbit coupling synthesized with a modulating gradient magnetic field

We report the observation of synthesized spin-orbit coupling (SOC) for ultracold spin-1 (87)Rb atoms. Different from earlier experiments where a one dimensional (1D) atomic SOC of pseudo-spin-1/2 is synthesized with Raman laser fields, the scheme we demonstrate employs a gradient magnetic field (GMF...
