Enhancement of laser cooling by the use of magnetic gradients
Andreas Albrecht, Alex Retzker, Christof Wunderlich +1
We present a laser cooling scheme for trapped ions and atoms using a combination of laser couplings and a magnetic gradient field. In a Schrieffer-Wolff transformed picture, this s…
Structural defects in ion crystals by quenching the external potential: the inhomogeneous Kibble-Zurek mechanism
A. del Campo, G. De Chiara, G. Morigi +2
The non-equilibrium dynamics of an ion chain in a highly anisotropic trap is studied when the transverse trap frequency is quenched across the value at which the chain undergoes a…
Superfast Cooling
S. Machnes, M. B. Plenio, B. Reznik +2
Currently laser cooling schemes are fundamentally based on the weak coupling regime. This requirement sets the trap frequency as an upper bound to the cooling rate. In this work we…
