A single atom emitting resonance fluorescence into a coherent beam, and its use for non-destructive atom thermometry
Tomáš Lamich, Laura Zarraoa, Sondos Elsehimy +2
Using a far-off-resonance optical dipole trap, we place a single neutral Rb atom in a weak, atom-resonant coherent beam, while also strongly illuminating it from an orthogon…

Manipulating and measuring single atoms in the Maltese cross geometry
Lorena C. Bianchet, Natalia Alves, Laura Zarraoa +2
We describe optical methods for trapping, cooling, and observing single Rb atoms in a four-lens "Maltese cross" geometry (MCG). The use of four high numerical-aperture lense…
