Beyond the ABCDs: A better matrix method for geometric optics by using homogeneous coordinates
Theodore A. Corcovilos
Geometric optics is often described as tracing the paths of non-diffracting rays through an optical system. In the paraxial limit, ray traces can be calculated using ray transfer m…
Two-dimensional optical quasicrystal potentials for ultracold atom experiments
Theodore A. Corcovilos, Jahnavee Mittal
Quasicrystals are nonperiodic structures having no translational symmetry but nonetheless possessing long-range order. The material properties of quasicrystals, particularly their…
A Simple game simulating quantum measurements of qubits
Theodore A. Corcovilos
Games are useful tools for introducing new concepts to students. This paper describes a competitive two-player game for sophomore students in a modern physics survey course or juni…
Coherent addressing of individual neutral atoms in a 3D optical lattice
Yang Wang, Xianli Zhang, Theodore A. Corcovilos +2
We demonstrate arbitrary coherent addressing of individual neutral atoms in a array formed by an optical lattice. Addressing is accomplished using rapidly recon…
3D Projection Sideband Cooling
Xiao Li, Theodore A. Corcovilos, Yang Wang +1
We demonstrate 3D microwave projection sideband cooling of trapped, neutral atoms. The technique employs state-dependent potentials that enable microwave photons to drive vibration…
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…
