Direct cooling in an optical lattice by amplitude modulation
M. Arnal, V. Brunaud, G. Chatelain +5
We report on a generic cooling technique for atoms trapped in optical lattices. It consists in modulating the lattice depth with a proper frequency sweeping. This filtering techniq…

Resonant excitations of a Bose Einstein condensate in an optical lattice
C. Cabrera-Gutiérrez, E. Michon, M. Arnal +4
We investigate experimentally a Bose Einstein condensate placed in a 1D optical lattice whose phase or amplitude is modulated in a frequency range resonant with the first bands of…

Fast phase-modulated optical lattice for wave packet engineering
C. Cabrera-Gutiérrez, A. Fortun, E. Michon +4
We investigate experimentally a Bose Einstein condensate placed in a 1D optical lattice whose phase is modulated at a frequency large compared to all characteristic frequencies. As…
