High-Fidelity, Low-Loss State Detection of Alkali-Metal Atoms in Optical Tweezer Traps

Matthew N. H. Chow, Bethany J. Little, Yuan-Yu Jau

We demonstrate discrimination of ground-state hyperfine manifolds of a cesium atom in an optical tweezer using a simple probe beam with 99.91(2)% detection fidelity and 0.9(2)% det…

A passively pumped vacuum package sustaining cold atoms for more than 200 days

Bethany J. Little, Gregory W. Hoth, Justin Christensen +5

Compact cold-atom sensors depend on vacuum technology. One of the major limitations to miniaturizing these sensors are the active pumps -- typically ion pumps -- required to sustai…

Femtometer Displacement Resolution with Phase-Insensitive Doppler Sensing

Bethany J. Little, Julián Martínez-Rincón, Umberto Bortolozzo +2

The measurement of extremely small displacements is of utmost importance, both for fundamental studies [1-4], and practical applications [5-7]. One way to estimate a small displace…

Slow light in flight imaging

Kali Wilson, Bethany Little, Genevieve Gariepy +3

Slow-light media are of interest in the context of quantum computing and enhanced measurement of quantum effects, with particular emphasis on using slow-light with single photons.…

Shifting the Quantum-Classical Boundary: Theory and Experiment for Statistically Classical Optical Fields

Xiao-Feng Qian, Bethany Little, John C. Howell +1

The growing recognition that entanglement is not exclusively a quantum property, and does not even originate with Schrödinger's famous remark about it [Proc. Camb. Phil. Soc. 31, 5…

Violation of Bell's Inequalities with Classical Shimony-Wolf States: Theory and Experiment

X. F. Qian, B. Little, J. C. Howell +1

For many decades the word "entanglement" has been firmly attached to the world of quantum mechanics, as is the phrase "Bell violation". Here we introduce Shimony-Wolf fields, entir…

Rapidly reconfigurable optically induced photonic crystals in hot rubidium vapor

Bethany Little, David J. Starling, John C. Howell +3

Through periodic index modulation, we create two different types of photonic structures in a heated rubidium vapor for controlled reflection, transmission and diffraction of light.…
