Trapped arrays of alkaline earth Rydberg atoms in optical tweezers
Jack Wilson, Samuel Saskin, Yijian Meng +4
Neutral atom qubits with Rydberg-mediated interactions are a leading platform for developing large-scale coherent quantum systems. In the majority of experiments to date, the Rydbe…
Observation of ultra-strong spin-motion coupling for cold atoms in optical microtraps
A. Dareau, Y. Meng, P. Schneeweiss +1
We realize a mechanical analogue of the Dicke model, achieved by coupling the spin of individual neutral atoms to their quantized motion in an optical trapping potential. The atomi…
Near-ground-state cooling of atoms optically trapped 300nm away from a hot surface
Y. Meng, A. Dareau, P. Schneeweiss +1
Laser-cooled atoms coupled to nanophotonic structures constitute a powerful research platform for the exploration of new regimes of light-matter interaction. While the initializati…
Fictitious magnetic field gradients in optical microtraps as an experimental tool for interrogating and manipulating cold atoms
Bernhard Albrecht, Yijian Meng, Christoph Clausen +3
Optical microtraps provide a strong spatial confinement for laser-cooled atoms. They can, e.g., be realized with strongly focused trapping light beams or the optical near fields of…
