Piezo-orbital backaction force in a rare-earth doped crystal
Anne Louchet-Chauvet, Pierre Verlot, Jean-Philippe Poizat +1
We investigate a system composed of an ensemble of room temperature rare-earth ions embedded in a bulk crystal, intrinsically coupled to internal strain via their sensitivity to th…
An extra-heating mechanism in Doppler-cooling experiments
Thierry Chaneliere, Jean-Louis Meunier, Robin Kaiser +2
In this paper we experimentally and theoretically investigate laser cooling of Strontium 88 atoms in one dimensional optical molasses. In our case, since the optical cooling dipole…
Light transport in cold atoms: the fate of coherent backscattering in the weak localization regime
D. Wilkowski, Y. Bidel, T. Chaneliere +5
The recent observation of coherent backscattering (CBS) of light by atoms has emphasized the key role of the velocity spread and of the quantum internal structure of the atoms. Fir…
