Heralded single photon absorption by a single atom
Nicolas Piro, Felix Rohde, Carsten Schuck +7
The emission and absorption of single photons by single atomic particles is a fundamental limit of matter-light interaction, manifesting its quantum mechanical nature. At the same…
Resonant interaction of a single atom with single photons from a down-conversion source
C. Schuck, F. Rohde, N. Piro +7
We observe the interaction of a single trapped calcium ion with single photons produced by a narrow-band, resonant down-conversion source [A. Haase et al., Opt. Lett. 34, 55 (2009)…
A tunable narrowband entangled photon pair source for resonant single-photon single-atom interaction
Albrecht Haase, Nicolas Piro, Jürgen Eschner +1
We present a tunable, frequency-stabilized, narrow-bandwidth source of frequency-degenerate, entangled photon pairs. The source is based on spontaneous parametric downconversion (S…
Trapping and manipulating neutral atoms with electrostatic fields
P. Krüger, X. Luo, M. W. Klein +7
We report on experiments with cold thermal Li atoms confined in combined magnetic and electric potentials. A novel type of three-dimensional trap was formed by modulating a mag…
Towards single-atom detection on a chip
Peter Horak, Bruce G. Klappauf, Albrecht Haase +4
We investigate the optical detection of single atoms held in a microscopic atom trap close to a surface. Laser light is guided by optical fibers or optical micro-structures via the…
