Trapping, Shaping and Isolating of Ion Coulomb Crystals via State-selective Optical Potentials
Pascal Weckesser, Fabian Thielemann, Daniel Hoenig +3
For conventional ion traps, the trapping potential is close to independent of the electronic state, providing confinement for ions dependent primarily on their charge-to-mass ratio…
Optical trapping of ion Coulomb crystals
Julian Schmidt, Alexander Lambrecht, Pascal Weckesser +3
The electronic and motional degrees of freedom of trapped ions can be controlled and coherently coupled on the level of individual quanta. Assembling complex quantum systems ion by…
Long lifetimes in optical ion traps
Alexander Lambrecht, Julian Schmidt, Pascal Weckesser +3
We report on single Barium ions confined in a near-infrared optical dipole trap for up to three seconds in absence of any radio-frequency fields. Additionally, the lifetime in a vi…
