Production of Sodium Bose--Einstein condensates in an optical dimple trap
David Jacob, Emmanuel Mimoun, Luigi De Sarlo +3
We report on the realization of a sodium Bose--Einstein condensate (BEC) in a combined red-detuned optical dipole trap, formed by two beams crossing in a horizontal plane and a thi…

Solid-state laser system for laser cooling of Sodium
Emmanuel Mimoun, Luigi de Sarlo, Jean-Jacques Zondy +2
We demonstrate a frequency-stabilized, all-solid laser source at 589 nm with up to 800 mW output power. The laser relies on sum-frequency generation from two laser sources at 1064…
