Off-resonant transitions in the collective dynamics of multilevel atomic ensembles

Yevhen Miroshnychenko, Klaus Mølmer

We study the contributions of off-resonant transitions to the dynamics of a system of N multilevel atoms sharing one excitation and interacting with the quantized vector electromag…

Directional emission of single photons from small atomic samples

Yevhen Miroshnychenko, Uffe V. Poulsen, Klaus Mølmer

We provide a formalism to describe deterministic emission of single photons with tailored spatial and temporal profiles from a regular array of multi-level atoms. We assume that a…

Profiling of micrometer sized laser beams in restricted volumes

Yevhen Miroshnychenko, Otto Nielsen, Aske Thorsen +1

We present a method for determining the 3D intensity distribution of directed laser radiation with micrometer resolution in restricted volumes. Our method is based on in-coupling a…

Coherent excitation of a single atom to a Rydberg state

Y. Miroshnychenko, A. Gaëtan, C. Evellin +5

We present the coherent excitation of a single Rubidium atom to the Rydberg state (58d3/2) using a two-photon transition. The experimental setup is described in detail, as well as…

Entanglement of two individual neutral atoms using Rydberg blockade

T. Wilk, A. Gaëtan, C. Evellin +4

We report the generation of entanglement between two individual Rb atoms in hyperfine ground states and which are held in two optical tweezers separa…

Observation of collective excitation of two individual atoms in the Rydberg blockade regime

A. Gaëtan, Y. Miroshnychenko, T. Wilk +6

The dipole blockade between Rydberg atoms has been proposed as a basic tool in quantum information processing with neutral atoms. Here we demonstrate experimentally the Rydberg blo…
