An extended-cavity diode laser at 497 nm for laser cooling and trapping of neutral strontium
Vladimir Schkolnik, Oliver Fartmann, Markus Krutzik
We present the first extended-cavity diode laser in Littrow configuration operating in the cyan wavelength range around 497 nm. The gallium-nitride based diode laser features a fre…
Space-borne Bose-Einstein condensation for precision interferometry
Dennis Becker, Maike D. Lachmann, Stephan T. Seidel +32
Space offers virtually unlimited free-fall in gravity. Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) enables ineffable low kinetic energies corresponding to pico- or even femtokelvins. The comb…
Observation of vector and tensor light shifts in 87Rb using near-resonant, stimulated Raman spectroscopy
Qing-Qing Hu, Christian Freier, Yuan Sun +5
We present the derivation of the frequency dependent scalar, vector, and tensor dynamical polarizabilities for the two hyperfine levels of the 87Rb atom 5s ground state. Based on t…
Mapping the absolute magnetic field and evaluating the quadratic Zeeman effect induced systematic error in an atom interferometer gravimeter
Qing-Qing Hu, Christian Freier, Bastian Leykauf +4
Precisely evaluating the systematic error induced by the quadratic Zeeman effect is important for developing atom interferometer gravimeters aiming at an accuracy in the regime ( )…
BOOST -- A Satellite Mission to Test Lorentz Invariance Using High-Performance Optical Frequency References
Norman Gürlebeck, Lisa Wörner, Thilo Schuldt +15
BOOST (BOOst Symmetry Test) is a proposed satellite mission to search for violations of Lorentz invariance by comparing two optical frequency references. One is based on a long-ter…
