Microtraps for neutral atoms using superconducting structures in the critical state
Andreas Emmert, Adrian Lupascu, Michel Brune +3
Recently demonstrated superconducting atom-chips provide a platform for trapping atoms and coupling them to solid-state quantum systems. Controlling these devices requires a full u…
Effect of vortices on the spin-flip lifetime of atoms in superconducting atom-chips
Gilles Nogues, Cédric Roux, Thomas Nirrengarten +7
We study theoretically the lifetime of magnetically trapped atoms in the close vicinity of a type-II superconducting surface, in the context of superconducting atom-chips. We accou…
Trapping and coherent manipulation of a Rydberg atom on a microfabricated device: a proposal
John Mozley, Philippe Hyafil, Gilles Nogues +3
We propose to apply atom-chip techniques to the trapping of a single atom in a circular Rydberg state. The small size of microfabricated structures will allow for trap geometries w…
Coherence-preserving trap architecture for long-term control of giant Rydberg atoms
Philippe Hyafil, John Mozley, Aurelien Perrin +5
We present a way to trap a single Rydberg atom, make it long-lived and preserve an internal coherence over time scales reaching into the minute range. We propose to trap using care…
