Optical Spin Initialization and Non-Destructive Measurement in a Quantum Dot Molecule
Danny Kim, Sophia E. Economou, Stefan C. Badescu +5
The spin of an electron in a self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dot molecule is optically prepared and measured through the trion triplet states. A longitudinal magnetic field is use…
Faraday spectroscopy of atoms confined in a dark optical trap
Matthew L. Terraciano, Mark Bashkansky, Fredrik Fatemi
We demonstrate Faraday spectroscopy with high duty cycle and sampling rate using atoms confined to a blue-detuned optical trap. Our trap consists of a crossed pair of high-charge-n…
Cold atom confinement in an all-optical dark ring trap
Spencer E. Olson, Matthew L. Terraciano, Mark Bashkansky +1
We demonstrate confinement of Rb atoms in a dark, toroidal optical trap. We use a spatial light modulator to convert a single blue-detuned Gaussian laser beam to a superposi…
Magnetically-controlled velocity selection in a cold atom sample using stimulated Raman transitions
Matthew L. Terraciano, Spencer E. Olson, Mark Bashkansky +2
We observe velocity-selective two-photon resonances in a cold atom cloud in the presence of a magnetic field. We use these resonances to demonstrate a simple magnetometer with sub-…
Channelization architecture for wide-band slow light in atomic vapors
Zachary Dutton, Mark Bashkansky, Michael Steiner +1
We propose a ``channelization'' architecture to achieve wide-band electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and ultra-slow light propagation in atomic Rb-87 vapors. EIT and sl…
