Coherent excitation of a single atom to a Rydberg state
Y. Miroshnychenko, A. Gaëtan, C. Evellin +5
We present the coherent excitation of a single Rubidium atom to the Rydberg state (58d3/2) using a two-photon transition. The experimental setup is described in detail, as well as…

Entanglement of two individual neutral atoms using Rydberg blockade
T. Wilk, A. Gaëtan, C. Evellin +4
We report the generation of entanglement between two individual Rb atoms in hyperfine ground states and which are held in two optical tweezers separa…
