Achieving very long lifetimes in optical lattices with pulsed cooling
Michael J. Gibbons, Soo Y. Kim, Kevin M. Fortier +2
We have realized a one dimensional optical lattice for individual atoms with a lifetime >300 s, which is 5 times longer than previously reported. In order to achieve this long life…
Deterministic loading of individual atoms to a high-finesse optical cavity
Kevin M. Fortier, Soo Y. Kim, Michael J. Gibbons +2
Individual laser cooled atoms are delivered on demand from a single atom magneto-optic trap to a high-finesse optical cavity using an atom conveyor. Strong coupling of the atom wit…
Observation of spinor dynamics in optically trapped 87Rb Bose-Einstein Condensates
M. -S. Chang, C. D. Hamley, M. D. Barrett +5
We measure spin mixing of F=1 and F=2 spinor condensates of 87Rb atoms confined in an optical trap. We determine the spin mixing time to be typically less than 600 ms and observe s…
