A Compact Cold-Atom Interferometer with a High Data-Rate Grating Magneto-Optical Trap and a Photonic-Integrated-Circuit-Compatible Laser System

Jongmin Lee, Roger Ding, Justin Christensen +16

The extreme miniaturization of a cold-atom interferometer accelerometer requires the development of novel technologies and architectures for the interferometer subsystems. Here we…

Creation of vibrationally-excited ultralong-range Rydberg molecules in polarized and unpolarized cold gases of Sr

R. Ding, S. K. Kanungo, J. D. Whalen +4

Photoexcitation rates for creation of ultralong-range Rydberg molecules (ULRM) with 31 in both ground and excited vibrational levels in cold (~nK)…

Probing Nonlocal Spatial Correlations in Quantum Gases with Ultra-long-range Rydberg Molecules

J. D. Whalen, S. K. Kanungo, R. Ding +7

We present photo-excitation of ultra-long-range Rydberg molecules as a probe of spatial correlations in quantum gases. Rydberg molecules can be created with well-defined internucle…

Photoassociative Spectroscopy of a Halo Molecule in Sr

J. A. Aman, J. C. Hill, R. Ding +3

We present two-photon photoassociation to the least-bound vibrational level of the X electronic ground state of the Sr dimer and measure a binding energy of $E_…

Theory of excitation of Rydberg polarons in an atomic quantum gas

R. Schmidt, J. D. Whalen, R. Ding +8

We present a quantum many-body description of the excitation spectrum of Rydberg polarons in a Bose gas. The many-body Hamiltonian is solved with functional determinant theory, and…

Lifetimes of ultralong-range strontium Rydberg molecules in a dense BEC

J. D. Whalen, F. Camargo, R. Ding +5

The lifetimes and decay channels of ultralong-range Rydberg molecules created in a dense BEC are examined by monitoring the time evolution of the Rydberg population using field ion…

Creation of Rydberg Polarons in a Bose Gas

F. Camargo, R. Schmidt, J. D. Whalen +8

We report spectroscopic observation of Rydberg polarons in an atomic Bose gas. Polarons are created by excitation of Rydberg atoms as impurities in a strontium Bose-Einstein conden…

Lifetimes of ultra-long-range strontium Rydberg molecules

F. Camargo, J. D. Whalen, R. Ding +5

The lifetimes of the lower-lying vibrational states of ultralong-range strontium Rydberg molecules comprising one ground-state 5s2 1S0 atom and one Rydberg atom in the 5s38s 3S1 st…
