Floquet-Engineering of Feshbach Resonances in Ultracold Lithium Gases — •Louisa Marie Kienesberger, Alexander Guthmann, Felix Lang, and Artur Widera — Physics Department and Research Center OPTIMAS, University of Kaiserslautern

Magnetic Feshbach resonances are a key tool for tuning interactions in ultracold atomic systems. In our recent work [1], we demonstrate that periodic modulation of the magnetic field enables the creation of Floquet-Feshbach resonances in a two-component gas of fermionic lithium-6, providing dynamic control over resonance positions.

We experimentally map out the structure of Floquet-dressed scattering states and confirm the theoretical predictions for their positions and widths. Our observations include clear signatures of higher-order resonances, revealing a rich spectrum of interaction control not accessible via static fields alone. Additionally, we show that inelastic atom losses can be strongly suppressed by introducing a second modulation frequency at exactly the second harmonic.

In conclusion, Floquet-Engineering of Feshbach resonances opens new pathways for precise control of scattering in ultracold gases. As a prominent application, it enables the realization of Bound States in the Continuum (BICs) through interference at avoided crossings between Floquet-Feshbach resonances, which will be discussed in a separate talk.
