Where Motion Meets Spin: A Quantum Leap in Simulating Magnetism

Molecules sparsely occupy a deep 3D optical lattice. Molecules interact with induced dipole moments and transition dipole moments represented by squiggly lines between lattice sites. Lowering the lattice depth in the horizontal direction allows tunneling between sites within layers.
