Observation of Feshbach resonances between a single ion and ultracold atoms

Pascal Weckesser, Fabian Thielemann, Dariusz Wiater +6

Controlling physical systems and their dynamics on the level of individual quanta propels both fundamental science and quantum technologies. Trapped atomic and molecular systems, n…

Trapping Ions and Atoms Optically

Tobias Schaetz

Isolating neutral and charged particles from the environment is essential in precision experiments. For decades, this has been achieved by trapping ions with radio-frequency (rf) f…

Trapping, Shaping and Isolating of Ion Coulomb Crystals via State-selective Optical Potentials

Pascal Weckesser, Fabian Thielemann, Daniel Hoenig +3

For conventional ion traps, the trapping potential is close to independent of the electronic state, providing confinement for ions dependent primarily on their charge-to-mass ratio…

Mass-selective removal of ions from Paul traps using parametric excitation

Julian Schmidt, Daniel Hönig, Pascal Weckesser +3

We study a method for mass-selective removal of ions from a Paul trap by parametric excitation. This can be achieved by applying an oscillating electric quadrupole field at twice t…

Optical Traps for sympathetic Cooling of Ions with ultracold neutral Atoms

J. Schmidt, P. Weckesser, F. Thielemann +2

We report the trapping of ultracold neutral atoms and ions in a common optical potential in absence of any radiofrequency (RF) fields. We prepare $ \te…

Floquet-engineered vibrational dynamics in a two-dimensional array of trapped ions

Philip Kiefer, Frederick Hakelberg, Matthias Wittemer +4

We demonstrate Floquet engineering in a basic yet scalable 2D architecture of individually trapped and controlled ions. Local parametric modulations of detuned trapping potentials…
