Sub-Doppler cooling of trapped ions using optical tweezers
Bas Gerritsen, Liam J. Bond, Jiri Minář +3
We propose a sub-Doppler cooling scheme for trapped-ion crystals in Paul traps. The combination of a hollow tweezer and microwave drive creates an effective two-level system which…
Ultracold collisions of a neutral atom with a trapped ion in 1D
Seth T. Rittenhouse, Lorenzo Oghittu, Arghavan Safavi-Naini +2
We present a fully quantum mechanical description of a free Li atom scattering from a trapped Yb ion in one dimension. By reformulating the system in polar coordina…
Trap-assisted complexes in cold atom-ion collisions
H. Hirzler, E. Trimby, R. Gerritsma +2
We theoretically investigate the trap-assisted formation of complexes in atom-ion collisions and their impact on the stability of the trapped ion. The time-dependent potential of t…
Observation of Chemical Reactions between a Trapped Ion and Ultracold Feshbach Dimers
H. Hirzler, R. S. Lous, E. Trimby +3
We measure chemical reactions between a single trapped Yb ion immersed in an ultracold bath of Li atoms containing trace amounts of Li dimers. This produces LiY…
Buffer gas cooling of ions in time-dependent traps using ultracold atoms
E. Trimby, H. Hirzler, H. Fürst +3
For exploration of quantum effects with hybrid atom-ion systems, reaching ultracold temperatures is the major limiting factor. In this work, we present results on numerical simulat…
