Rabi oscillations between ground and Rydberg states and van der Waals blockade in a mesoscopic frozen Rydberg gas
Markus Reetz-Lamour, Johannes Deiglmayr, Thomas Amthor +1
We present a detailed analysis of our recent observation of synchronous Rabi oscillations between the electronic ground state and Rydberg states in a mesoscopic ensemble containing…
A planar multipole ion trap
M. Debatin, M. Kröner, J. Mikosch +6
We report on the realisation of a chip-based multipole ion trap manufactured using micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. It provides ion confinement in an almost field…
Rabi oscillations and excitation trapping in the coherent excitation of a mesoscopic frozen Rydberg gas
Markus Reetz-Lamour, Thomas Amthor, Johannes Deiglmayr +1
We demonstrate the coherent excitation of a mesoscopic ensemble of about 100 ultracold atoms to Rydberg states by driving Rabi oscillations from the atomic ground state. We employ…
Modeling many-particle mechanical effects of an interacting Rydberg gas
Thomas Amthor, Markus Reetz-Lamour, Christian Giese +1
In a recent work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 023004 (2007)] we have investigated the influence of attractive van der Waals interaction on the pair distribution and Penning ionization dyn…
Suppression of Excitation and Spectral Broadening Induced by Interactions in a Cold Gas of Rydberg Atoms
Kilian Singer, Markus Reetz-Lamour, Thomas Amthor +2
We report on the observation of ultralong range interactions in a gas of cold Rubidium Rydberg atoms. The van-der-Waals interaction between a pair of Rydberg atoms separated as far…
