Guiding of cold atoms by a red-detuned laser beam of moderate power
B. T. Wolschrijn, R. A. Cornelussen, R. J. C. Spreeuw +1
We report measurements on the guiding of cold Rb atoms from a magneto-optical trap by a continuous light beam over a vertical distance of 6.5 mm. For moderate laser power ($…
A stochastic rainbow caustic observed with cold atoms
B. T. Wolschrijn, D. Voigt, R. Jansen +4
We report the direct observation of a novel type of rainbow caustic. In contrast to known examples, this caustic originates from a dissipative, stochastic process. We have observed…
Elastic and Inelastic Evanescent-Wave Mirrors for Cold Atoms
D. Voigt, B. T. Wolschrijn, R. A. Cornelussen +4
We report on experiments on an evanescent-wave mirror for cold Rb atoms. Measurements of the bouncing fraction show the importance of the Van der Waals attraction to the sur…
Creating a low-dimensional quantum gas using dark states in an inelastic evanescent-wave mirror
R. J. C. Spreeuw, D. Voigt, B. T. Wolschrijn +1
We discuss an experimental scheme to create a low-dimensional gas of ultracold atoms, based on inelastic bouncing on an evanescent-wave mirror. Close to the turning point of the mi…
