Optically guided beam splitter for propagating matter waves

Giovanni Luca Gattobigio, Antoine Couvert, Gael Reinaudi +2

We study experimentally and theoretically a beam splitter setup for guided atomic matter waves. The matter wave is a guided atom laser that can be tuned from quasi-monomode to a re…

Exploring classically chaotic potentials with a matter wave quantum probe

Giovanni Luca Gattobigio, Antoine Couvert, Bertrand Georgeot +1

We study an experimental setup in which a quantum probe, provided by a quasi-monomode guided atom laser, interacts with a static localized attractive potential whose characteristic…

Interaction of a propagating guided matter wave with a localized potential

Giovanni Luca Gattobigio, Antoine Couvert, Bertrand Georgeot +1

We provide a theoretical framework to describe the interaction of a propagating guided matter wave with a localized potential in terms of quantum scattering in a confined environme…

A quasi-monomode guided atom-laser from an all-optical Bose-Einstein condensate

A. Couvert, M. Jeppesen, T. Kawalec +3

We report the achievement of an optically guided and quasi-monomode atom laser, in all spin projection states ( -1, 0 and ) of F=1 in Rubidium 87. The atom laser source…

Optimal transport of ultracold atoms in the non-adiabatic regime

A. Couvert, T. Kawalec, G. Reinaudi +1

We report the transport of ultracold atoms with optical tweezers in the non-adiabatic regime, i.e. on a time scale on the order of the oscillation period. We have found a set of di…

A moving magnetic mirror to slow down a bunch of atoms

Gaël Reinaudi, Zhaoying Wang, Antoine Couvert +2

A fast packet of cold atoms is coupled into a magnetic guide and subsequently slowed down by reflection on a magnetic potential barrier ('mirror') moving along the guide. A detaile…
