Theory of Attosecond Transient Absorption Spectroscopy of Krypton for Overlapping Pump and Probe Pulses

Stefan Pabst, Arina Sytcheva, Antoine Moulet +3

We present the first fully ab initio calculations for attosecond transient absorption spectroscopy of atomic krypton with overlapping pump and probe pulses. Within the time-depende…

Ground-State Cooling of a Single Atom at the Center of an Optical Cavity

Andreas Reiserer, Christian Nölleke, Stephan Ritter +1

A single neutral atom is trapped in a three-dimensional optical lattice at the center of a high-finesse optical resonator. Using fluorescence imaging and a shiftable standing-wave…

Quantum beats in the polarization response of a dielectric to intense few-cycle laser pulses

Michael Korbman, Stanislav Yu. Kruchinin, Vladislav S. Yakovlev

We have investigated the polarization response of a dielectric to intense few-cycle laser pulses with a focus on interband tunnelling. Once charge carriers are created in an initia…

Observation of mesoscopic crystalline structures in a two-dimensional Rydberg gas

Peter Schauß, Marc Cheneau, Manuel Endres +7

The ability to control and tune interactions in ultracold atomic gases has paved the way towards the realization of new phases of matter. Whereas experiments have so far achieved a…

Single ions trapped in a one-dimensional optical lattice

Martin Enderlein, Thomas Huber, Christian Schneider +1

We report on three-dimensional optical trapping of single ions in an optical lattice formed by two counter-propagating laser beams. We characterize the trapping parameters of the s…

Nanoplasmonic Lattices for Ultracold atoms

M. Gullans, T. Tiecke, D. E. Chang +5

We propose to use sub-wavelength confinement of light associated with the near field of plasmonic systems to create nanoscale optical lattices for ultracold atoms. Our approach com…
