A High-Flux Source of Cold Strontium with a Loading Rate of atoms/s for Open Release
Thomas Walker, Anna L. Marchant, Elliot Bentine +17
We present a high-flux source of cold strontium atoms based on a two-dimensional magneto-optical trap (2D MOT) and a Zeeman slower. We use the source to load a 3D MOT in a separate…
Trapping Ion Coulomb Crystals in an Optical Lattice
Daniel Hoenig, Fabian Thielemann, Leon Karpa +3
We report the optical trapping of multiple ions localized at individual lattice sites of a one-dimensional optical lattice. We observe a fivefold increase in robustness against axi…
Development of a hardened THz energy meter for use on the kilojoule-scale, short-pulse OMEGA EP laser
G. Bruhaug, H. G. Rinderknecht, Y. E +17
A highly adaptable and robust THz energy meter has been designed and implemented to detect energetic THz pulses from high intensity (greater than 1E18 watts per square centimeter)…
Observation of Feshbach resonances between a single ion and ultracold atoms
Pascal Weckesser, Fabian Thielemann, Dariusz Wiater +6
Controlling physical systems and their dynamics on the level of individual quanta propels both fundamental science and quantum technologies. Trapped atomic and molecular systems, n…
Improving the Indistinguishability of Single Photons from an Ion-Cavity System
Thomas Walker, Samir Vartabi Kashanian, Travers Ward +1
We investigate schemes for generating indistinguishable single photons, a key feature of quantum networks, from a trapped ion coupled to an optical cavity. Through selection of the…
Long-distance single photon transmission from a trapped ion via quantum frequency conversion
Thomas Walker, Koichiro Miyanishi, Rikizo Ikuta +7
Trapped atomic ions are ideal single photon emitters with long lived internal states which can be entangled with emitted photons. Coupling the ion to an optical cavity enables effi…
