An ultra-bright atom laser
V. Bolpasi, N. K. Efremidis, M. J. Morrissey +4
We present a novel, ultra-bright atom-laser and ultra-cold thermal atom beam. Using rf-radiation we strongly couple the magnetic hyperfine levels of 87Rb atoms in a magnetically tr…

Tapered optical fibers as tools for probing magneto-optical trap characteristics
M. J. Morrissey, K. Deasy, Y. Wu +2
We present a novel technique for measuring the characteristics of a magneto-optical trap for cold atoms by monitoring the spontaneous emission from trapped atoms coupled into the g…

A heat-and-pull rig for fiber taper fabrication
J. Ward, D. O'Shea, B. Shortt +3
We describe a reproducible method of fabricating adiabatic tapers with 3-4 micron diameter. The method is based on a heat-and-pull rig, whereby a CO2 laser is continuously scanned…
