Progress towards a matter wave interferometer for inertial sensing with non-destructive monitoring of Bloch oscillations
D. Rivero, C. Beli Silva, M. A. Moreno Armijo +6
We report on our progress in the construction of a continuous matter-wave interferometer for inertial sensing via the non-destructive observation of Bloch oscillations. At the pres…
Hollow Bessel beams for guiding atoms between vacuum chambers: A proposal and efficiency study
Dalila Rivero, Vinicius S. de Angelis, Camila Beli +3
We explore a scheme for guiding cold atoms through a hollow Bessel beam generated by a single axicon and a lens from a 2D magneto-optical trap toward a science chamber. We compare…
The Atomic Lighthouse Effect
C. E. Máximo, R. Kaiser, Ph. W. Courteille +1
We investigate the deflection of light by a cold atomic cloud when the light-matter interaction is locally tuned via the Zeeman effect using magnetic field gradients. This "lightho…
One-dimensional photonic band gaps in optical lattices
Marina Samoylova, Nicola Piovella, Michael Holynski +2
The phenomenon of photonic band gaps in one-dimensional optical lattices is reviewed using a microscopic approach. Formally equivalent to the transfer matrix approach in the thermo…
Interplay between radiation pressure force and scattered light intensity in the cooperative scattering by cold atoms
Tom Bienaime, Romain Bachelard, Julien Chabe +5
The interplay between the superradiant emission of a cloud of cold two-level atoms and the radiation pressure force is discussed. Using a microscopic model of coupled atomic dipole…
The role of Mie scattering in the seeding of matter-wave superradiance
Romain Bachelard, Helmar Bender, Philippe W. Courteille +4
Matter-wave superradiance is based on the interplay between ultracold atoms coherently organized in momentum space and a backscattered wave. Here, we show that this mechanism may b…
