Trapping of nanofabricated SiO${}_2$ high-aspect-ratio discs in an optical lattice

Shelby Klomp, Shafaq Gulzar Elahi, Scott Grudichak +13

We describe the nanofabrication and loading of lithographically patterned, high aspect ratio $10$ $\mu$m diameter silicon dioxide discs with thickness of $400$ nm into an optical sta…
