Multi-frequency telecom fibered laser system for potassium laser cooling

Charbel Cherfan, Maxime Denis, Denis Bacquet +7

We describe a compact and versatile multi-frequency laser system for laser-cooling potassium atoms, by frequency doubling a fiber-optic telecom beam ( or ~nm). L…

Adiabatic spin-dependent momentum transfer in an SU(N) degenerate Fermi gas

P. Bataille, A. Litvinov, I. Manai +7

We introduce a spin-orbit coupling scheme, where a retro-reflected laser beam selectively diffracts two spin components in opposite directions. Spin sensitivity is provided by swee…

Acetylene-based frequency stabilization of a laser system for potassium laser cooling

Charbel Cherfan, Isam Manai, Samir Zemmouri +4

We demonstrate a laser frequency stabilization technique for laser cooling of Potassium atoms, based on saturated absorption spectroscopy in the C-Band optical telecommunication wi…

Experimental realization of an ideal Floquet disordered system

Clément Hainaut, Adam Rançon, Jean-François Clément +5

The atomic Quantum Kicked Rotor is an outstanding "quantum simulator" for the exploration of transport in disordered quantum systems. Here we study experimentally the phase-shifted…

Controlling symmetry and localization with an artificial gauge field in a disordered quantum system

Clément Hainaut, Isam Manai, Jean-François Clément +6

Anderson localization, the absence of diffusion in disordered media, draws its origins from the destructive interference between multiple scattering paths. The localization propert…

Return to the Origin as a Probe of Atomic Phase Coherence

Clément Hainaut, Isam Manai, Radu Chicireanu +7

We report on the observation of the coherent enhancement of the return probability ("enhanced return to the origin" , ERO) in a periodically kicked cold-atom gas. By submitting an…

Experimental Observation of Two-Dimensional Anderson Localization with the Atomic Kicked Rotor

Isam Manai, Jean-François Clément, Radu Chicireanu +4

Dimension 2 is expected to be the lower critical dimension for Anderson localization in a time reversal-invariant disordered quantum system. Using an atomic quasiperiodic kicked ro…
