Laser-induced forced evaporative cooling of molecular anions below 4 Kelvin

Jonas Tauch, Saba Zia Hassan, Markus Noetzold +3

The study of cold and controlled molecular ions is pivotal for fundamental research in modern physics and chemistry. Investigations into cooling molecular anions, in particular, ha…

Rydberg blockade in an ultracold strontium gas revealed by two-photon excitation dynamics

Chang Qiao, Can-Zhu Tan, Julia Siegl +5

We demonstrate the interaction-induced blockade effect in an ultracold Sr gas via studying the time dynamics of a two-photon excitation to the triplet Rydberg series $5\math…

Nonlinear absorption in interacting Rydberg electromagnetically-induced-transparency spectra on two-photon resonance

Annika Tebben, Clément Hainaut, Andre Salzinger +6

We experimentally investigate the nonlinear transmission spectrum of coherent light fields propagating through a Rydberg EIT medium with strong atomic interactions. In contrast to…

Ellipticity-dependent sequential over-barrier ionization of cold rubidium

Junyang Yuan, Shiwei Liu, Xincheng Wang +10

We perform high-resolution measurements of momentum distribution on Rb recoil ions up to charge state , where laser-cooled rubidium atoms are ionized by femtosecond ell…

Photon correlation transients in a weakly blockaded Rydberg ensemble

Charles Möhl, Nicholas L. R. Spong, Yuechun Jiao +4

The non-linear and non-local effects in atomic Rydberg media under electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) make it a versatile platform for fundamental studies and applicati…

Blockade-induced resonant enhancement of the optical nonlinearity in a Rydberg medium

Annika Tebben, Clément Hainaut, Valentin Walther +4

We predict a resonant enhancement of the nonlinear optical response of an interacting Rydberg gas under conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency. The enhancement orig…
