Observation of modified radiative properties of cold atoms in vacuum near a dielectric surface
V. V. Ivanov, R. A. Cornelussen, H. B. van Linden van den Heuvell +1
We have observed a distance-dependent absorption linewidth of cold Rb atoms close to a dielectric-vacuum interface. This is the first observation of modified radiative prope…
Power-efficient frequency switching of a locked laser
R. A. Cornelussen, T. N. Huussen, R. J. C. Spreeuw +1
We demonstrate a new and efficient laser-locking technique that enables making large frequency jumps while keeping the laser in lock. A diode laser is locked at a variable offset f…
A stochastic rainbow caustic observed with cold atoms
B. T. Wolschrijn, D. Voigt, R. Jansen +4
We report the direct observation of a novel type of rainbow caustic. In contrast to known examples, this caustic originates from a dissipative, stochastic process. We have observed…
Elastic and Inelastic Evanescent-Wave Mirrors for Cold Atoms
D. Voigt, B. T. Wolschrijn, R. A. Cornelussen +4
We report on experiments on an evanescent-wave mirror for cold Rb atoms. Measurements of the bouncing fraction show the importance of the Van der Waals attraction to the sur…
