Observation of Extra Photon Recoil in a Distorted Optical Field
Satyanarayana Bade, Lionel Djadaojee, Manuel Andia +2
Light carries momentum which induces on atoms a recoil for each photon absorbed. In vacuum, for a monochromatic beam of frequency , the global momentum per photon is bounded by…
Sub-Doppler laser cooling of 40K with Raman gray molasses on the D2 line
G. D. Bruce, E. Haller, B. Peaudecerf +6
Gray molasses is a powerful tool for sub-Doppler laser cooling of atoms to low temperatures. For alkaline atoms, this technique is commonly implemented with cooling lasers which ar…
Compact atomic gravimeter based on a pulsed and accelerated optical lattice
Manuel Andia, Raphael Jannin, François Nez +3
We present a new scheme of compact atomic gravimeter based on atom interferometry. Atoms are maintained against gravity using a sequence of coherent accelerations performed by the…
