Spectral-discrete solitons and localization in frequency space
A. V. Gorbach, D. V. Skryabin
We report families of discrete optical solitons in frequency space, or spectral-discrete solitons existing in a dispersive Raman medium, where individual side-bands are coupled by…

All-optical generation and photoassociative probing of sodium Bose-Einstein condensates
R. Dumke, M. Johanning, E. Gomez +3
We demonsatrate an all optical technique to evaporatively produce sodium Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC). We use a crossed-dipole trap formed from light near 1060 nm, and a simple…
