Floquet prethermalization and Rabi oscillations in optically excited Hubbard clusters

Abstract We study the properties of Floquet prethermal states in two-dimensional Mott-insulating Hubbard clusters under continuous optical excitation. With exact-diagonalization simulations, we show that Floquet prethermal states emerge not only off resonance, but also for resonant excitation, provi...
