Abstract
The Hubbard Hamiltonian governs the phases accessible to strongly correlated particles in a periodic potential. Here, we introduce a technology for emulating the Hubbard model from semiconducting quasiparticles confined in electrostatic lattices. The Hamiltonian is probed experimentally, continuously from the bosonic to the fermionic regime. For geometries where long-range interactions are dominant, confinement-symmetry-breaking quantum insulators are developed.
