Coupling of atomic quadrupole transitions with resonant surface plasmons

Eng Aik Chan, Syed Abdullah Aljunid, Giorgio Adamo +3

We report on the coupling of an electric quadrupole transition in atom with plasmonic excitation in a nanostructured metallic metamaterial. The quadrupole transition at 685 nm in t…

Coherent light propagation through cold atomic clouds beyond the independent scattering approximation

Chang Chi Kwong, David Wilkowski, Dominique Delande +1

We calculate the relative permittivity of a cold atomic gas under weak probe illumination, up to second order in the density. Within the framework of a diagrammatic representation…

Dynamic polarizability measurements in Lu

K. J. Arnold, R. Kaewuam, T. R. Tan +3

We measure the differential polarizability of the Lu -to- clock transition at multiple wavelengths. This experimentally characterizes the differential…

Efficient microwave-to-optical conversion using Rydberg atoms

Thibault Vogt, Christian Gross, Jingshan Han +4

We demonstrate microwave-to-optical conversion using six-wave mixing in Rb atoms where the microwave field couples to two atomic Rydberg states, and propagates collinearly w…

Comparison of an efficient implementation of gray molasses to narrow-line cooling for the all-optical production of a lithium quantum gas

Christine L. Satter, Senmao Tan, Kai Dieckmann

We present an efficient scheme to implement a gray optical molasses for sub-Doppler cooling of Li atoms with minimum experimental overhead. To integrate the light for t…

Transmission spectroscopy of a single atom in the presence of tensor light shifts

Matthias Steiner, Yue-Sum Chin, Christian Kurtsiefer

We investigate the interplay between Zeeman and light shifts in the transmission spectrum of an optically trapped, spin-polarized Rubidium atom. The spectral shape of the transmiss…
