All-Optical Production of a Lithium Quantum Gas Using Narrow-Line Laser Cooling
P. M. Duarte, R. A. Hart, J. M. Hitchcock +4
We have used the narrow transition in the ultraviolet (uv) to laser cool and magneto-optically trap (MOT) Li atoms. Laser cooling of lithium is…
Dissipative Transport of a Bose-Einstein Condensate
D. Dries, S. E. Pollack, J. M. Hitchcock +1
We investigate the effects of impurities, either correlated disorder or a single Gaussian defect, on the collective dipole motion of a Bose-Einstein condensate of Li in an opti…
Detecting antiferromagnetism of atoms in an optical lattice via optical Bragg scattering
T. A. Corcovilos, S. K. Baur, J. M. Hitchcock +2
Antiferromagnetism of ultracold fermions in an optical lattice can be detected by Bragg diffraction of light, in analogy to the diffraction of neutrons from solid state materials.…
Photoassociation of a Bose-Einstein Condensate near a Feshbach Resonance
M. Junker, D. Dries, C. Welford +3
We measure the effect of a magnetic Feshbach resonance (FR) on the rate and light-induced frequency shift of a photoassociation resonance in ultracold Li. The photoassociation-…
Phase Coherence and Superfluid-Insulator Transition in a Disordered Bose-Einstein Condensate
Yong P. Chen, J. Hitchcock, D. Dries +3
We have studied the effects of a disordered optical potential on the transport and phase coherence of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of 7Li atoms. At moderate disorder strengths…
