Energy distribution and cooling of a single atom in an optical tweezer
C. Tuchendler, A. M. Lance, A. Browaeys +2
We investigate experimentally the energy distribution of a single rubidium atom trapped in a strongly focused dipole trap under various cooling regimes. Using two different methods…
Diffraction limited optics for single atom manipulation
Y. R. P. Sortais, H. Marion, C. Tuchendler +8
We present an optical system designed to capture and observe a single neutral atom in an optical dipole trap, created by focussing a laser beam using a large numerical aperture N.A…
A Femtosecond Nanometer Free Electron Source
Peter Hommelhoff, Yvan Sortais, Anoush Aghajani-Talesh +1
We report a source of free electron pulses based on a field emission tip irradiated by a low-power femtosecond laser. The electron pulses are shorter than 70 fs and originate from…
