Dynamics of two atoms undergoing light-assisted collisions in an optical microtrap
P. Sompet, A. V. Carpentier, Y. H. Fung +2
We study the dynamics of atoms in optical traps when exposed to laser cooling light that induces light-assisted collisions. We experimentally prepare individual atom pairs and obse…
Single beam atom sorting machine
M. McGovern, T. Grünzweig, A. J. Hilliard +1
We create two overlapping one-dimensional optical lattices using a single laser beam, a spatial light modulator and a high numerical aperture lens. These lattices have the potentia…
Counting atoms in a deep optical microtrap
Matthew McGovern, Andrew Hilliard, Tzahi Grünzweig +1
We demonstrate a method to count small numbers of atoms held in a deep, microscopic optical dipole trap by collecting fluorescence from atoms exposed to a standing wave of light th…
Thermo-optic locking of a semiconductor laser to a microcavity resonance
T. G. McRae, K. H. Lee, M. McGovern +2
We experimentally demonstrate thermo-optic locking of a semiconductor laser to an integrated toroidal optical microresonator. The lock is maintained for time periods exceeding twel…
