Time domain deBroglie wave interferometry along a magnetic guide

Saijun Wu, Edward J. Su, Mara Prentiss

Time domain deBroglie wave interferometry [Cahn et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 79, 784] is applied to Rb87 atoms in a magnetic guide. A standing wave light field is carefully aligned alon…

A quantum point contact for neutral atoms

J. H. Thywissen, R. M. Westervelt, M. Prentiss

We show that the conductance of neutral atoms through a tightly confining waveguide constriction is quantized in units of lambda_dB^2/pi, where lambda_dB is the de Broglie waveleng…

Properties of Microelectromagnet Mirrors as Reflectors of Cold Rb Atoms

M. Drndic, G. Zabow, C. S. Lee +12

Cryogenically cooled microelectromagnet mirrors were used to reflect a cloud of free-falling laser-cooled 85Rb atoms at normal incidence. The mirrors consisted of microfabricated c…

Guiding Neutral Atoms

N. H. Dekker, C. S. Lee, V. Lorent +5

We demonstrate the guiding of neutral atoms by the magnetic fields due to microfabricated current-carrying wires on a chip. Atoms are guided along a magnetic field minimum parallel…

Substrate-based atom waveguide using guided two-color evanescent light fields

A. H. Barnett, S. P. Smith, M. Olshanii +3

We propose a dipole-force linear waveguide which confines neutral atoms up to lambda/2 above a microfabricated single-mode dielectric optical guide. The optical guide carries far b…
