Sideband cooling of the radial modes of motion of a single ion in a Penning trap
P. Hrmo, M. K. Joshi, V. Jarlaud +2
Doppler and sideband cooling are long standing techniques that have been used together to prepare trapped atomic ions in their ground state of motion. In this paper we study how th…
Sideband cooling of small ion Coulomb crystals in a Penning trap
G. Stutter, P. Hrmo, V. Jarlaud +3
We have recently demonstrated the laser cooling of a single Ca ion to the motional ground state in a Penning trap using the resolved-sideband cooling technique on the el…
Double wells, scalar fields and quantum phase transitions in ions traps
A. Retzker, R. Thompson, D. Segal +1
Since Hund's work on the ammonia molecule, the double well potential has formed a key paradigm in physics. Its importance is further underlined by the central role it plays in the…
Improvement of Laser Cooling of Ions in a Penning Trap by use of the Axialisation Technique
H. F. Powell, S. R. de Echaniz, E. S. Phillips +2
We report a study of the axialisation and laser cooling of single ions and small clouds of ions in a Penning trap. A weak radiofrequency signal applied to a segmented ring electrod…
