Trapping Yb Atoms into a One-Dimensional Optical Lattice with a Small Waist
Akio Kawasaki, Boris Braverman, Edwin Pedrozo-Peñafiel +4
In most experiments with atoms trapped in optical lattices, the transverse size of the optical lattice beams is on the order of tens of micrometers, and loading many atoms into sma…
Near-Unitary Spin Squeezing in Yb
Boris Braverman, Akio Kawasaki, Edwin Pedrozo-Peñafiel +9
Spin squeezing can improve atomic precision measurements beyond the standard quantum limit (SQL), and unitary spin squeezing is essential for improving atomic clocks. We report sub…
Geometrically asymmetric optical cavity for strong atom-photon coupling
Akio Kawasaki, Boris Braverman, Edwin Pedrozo-Peñafiel +11
Optical cavities are widely used to enhance the interaction between atoms and light. Typical designs using a geometrically symmetric structure in the near-concentric regime face a…
