Platform and Framework for Time-Resolved Nanoscale Thermal Transport Measurements in STEM

Mairi McCauley, Joel Martis, Ondrej L. Krivanek +12

Understanding heat transport at the nanometer scale is critical for semiconductor devices, quantum materials, and thermal management of nanostructures, yet direct local measurement…

High-temperature phonons in h-BN: momentum-resolved vibrational spectroscopy and theory

Andrew O'Hara, Benjamin Plotkin-Swing, Niklas Dellby +4

Vibrations in materials and nanostructures at sufficiently high temperatures result in anharmonic atomic displacements, which leads to new phenomena such as thermal expansion and m…

Crossed-Beam slowing to enhance narrow-line Ytterbium Magneto-Optic Traps

Benjamin Plotkin-Swing, Anna Wirth, Daniel Gochnauer +3

We demonstrate a method to enhance the atom loading rate of a ytterbium (Yb) magneto-optic trap (MOT) operating on the 556 nm intercombination transit…

Bloch-bands Picture for Light Pulse Atom Diffraction and Interferometry

Daniel Gochnauer, Katherine E. McAlpine, Benjamin Plotkin-Swing +2

We apply a Bloch-bands approach to the analysis of pulsed optical standing wave diffractive elements in optics and interferometry with ultracold atoms. We verify our method by comp…

Three-path atom interferometry with large momentum separation

Benjamin Plotkin-Swing, Daniel Gochnauer, Katherine E. McAlpine +3

We demonstrate the scale up of a symmetric three-path contrast interferometer to large momentum separation. The observed phase stability at separation of 112 photon recoil momenta…

Active Stabilization of a Diode Laser Injection Lock

Brendan Saxberg, Benjamin Plotkin-Swing, Subhadeep Gupta

We report on a device to electronically stabilize the optical injection lock of a semiconductor diode laser. Our technique uses as discriminator the peak height of the laser's tran…
