Rydberg-induced optical nonlinearities from a cold atomic ensemble trapped inside a cavity

Rajiv Boddeda, Imam Usmani, Erwan Bimbard +4

We experimentally characterize the optical nonlinear response of a cold atomic medium placed inside an optical cavity, and excited to Rydberg states. The excitation to S and D Rydb…

Propagation of light through small clouds of cold interacting atoms

S. Jennewein, Y. R. P. Sortais, J. -J. Greffet +1

We demonstrate experimentally that a cloud of cold atoms with a size comparable to the wavelength of light can induce large group delays on a laser pulse when the laser is tightly…

Optimal control of complex atomic quantum systems

S. van Frank, M. Bonneau, J. Schmiedmayer +8

Quantum technologies will ultimately require manipulating many-body quantum systems with high precision. Cold atom experiments represent a stepping stone in that direction: a high…

X-ray fluorescence induced by standing waves in the grazing-incidence and grazing-exit modes: study of the Mg--Co--Zr system

Yuchun Tu, Yanyan Yuan, Karine Le Guen +6

We present the characterization of Mg-Co-Zr tri-layer stacks by using x-ray fluorescence induced by x-ray standing waves, both in the grazing incidence (GI) and grazing exit (GE) m…

Mott Transition for Strongly-Interacting 1D Bosons in a Shallow Periodic Potential

G. Boéris, L. Gori, M. D. Hoogerland +9

We investigate the superfluid-insulator transition of one-dimensional interacting Bosons in both deep and shallow periodic potentials. We compare a theoretical analysis based on Mo…

Coherent scattering of near-resonant light by a Dense Microscopic Cold Atomic cloud

S. Jennewein, M. Besbes, N. J. Schilder +6

We measure the coherent scattering of light by a cloud of laser-cooled atoms with a size comparable to the wavelength of light. By interfering a laser beam tuned near an atomic res…
