Completing the optical spectroscopy of the manifold: the electric dipole forbidden transition in atomic rubidium
Francisco Ponciano-Ojeda, Cristian Mojica-Casique, Santiago Hernández-Gómez +6
We present the first evidence of excitation of the electric dipole-forbidden transition in atomic rubidium. The experiments were carried out in a ru…
Extended coherence time on the clock transition of optically trapped Rubidium
G. Kleine Büning, J. Will, W. Ertmer +6
Optically trapped ensembles are of crucial importance for frequency measurements and quantum memories, but generally suffer from strong dephasing due to inhomogeneous density and l…
Characteristics of integrated magneto-optical traps for atom chips
S Pollock, J P Cotter, A Laliotis +2
We investigate the operation of pyramidal magneto-optical traps (MOTs) microfabricated in silicon. Measurements of the loading and loss rates give insight into the role of the near…
Pyramidal micro-mirrors for microsystems and atom chips
M. Trupke, F. Ramirez-Martinez, E. A. Curtis +8
Concave pyramids are created in the (100) surface of a silicon wafer by anisotropic etching in potassium hydroxide. High quality micro-mirrors are then formed by sputtering gold on…
Micron-sized atom traps made from magneto-optical thin films
S. Eriksson, F. Ramirez-Martinez, E. A. Curtis +4
We have produced magnetic patterns suitable for trapping and manipulating neutral atoms on a m length scale. The required patterns are made in Co/Pt thin films on a silicon su…
