Metasurfaces for neutral-atom trapping
Chengyu Fang, Minjeong Kim, Mark Saffman +2
Trapped neutral atoms are one of the leading platforms for quantum information technologies, in particular for quantum computing, but scaling them to array sizes needed for utility…
Silicon-on-sapphire metasurfaces generate arrays of dark and bright traps for neutral atoms
Chengyu Fang, Minjeong Kim, Hongyan Mei +10
We demonstrated crystalline silicon-on-sapphire (c-SOS) metasurfaces that convert a Gaussian beam into arrays of complex optical traps, including arrays of optical bottle beams tha…
Long working distance objective lenses for single atom trapping and imaging
J. D. Pritchard, J. A. Isaacs, M. Saffman
We present a pair of optimized objective lenses with long working distances of 117~mm and 65~mm respectively that offer diffraction limited performance for both Cs and Rb wavelengt…
Two dimensional modulational instability in photorefractive media
M. Saffman, Glen McCarthy, Wieslaw Królikowski
We study theoretically and experimentally the modulational instability of broad optical beams in photorefractive nonlinear media. We demonstrate the impact of the anisotropy of the…
