Submicrometer position control of single trapped neutral atoms
I. Dotsenko, W. Alt, M. Khudaverdyan +5
We optically detect the positions of single neutral cesium atoms stored in a standing wave dipole trap with a sub-wavelength resolution of 143 nm rms. The distance between two simu…
Analysis of dephasing mechanisms in a standing wave dipole trap
S. Kuhr, W. Alt, D. Schrader +4
We study in detail the mechanisms causing dephasing of hyperfine coherences of cesium atoms confined by a far off-resonant standing wave optical dipole trap [S. Kuhr et al., Phys.…
Coherence properties and quantum state transportation in an optical conveyor belt
S. Kuhr, W. Alt, D. Schrader +7
We have prepared and detected quantum coherences with long dephasing times at the level of single trapped cesium atoms. Controlled transport by an "optical conveyor belt" over macr…
Single Atoms in an Optical Dipole Trap: Towards a Deterministic Source of Cold Atoms
D. Frese, B. Ueberholz, S. Kuhr +4
We describe a simple experimental technique which allows us to store a small and deterministic number of neutral atoms in an optical dipole trap. The desired atom number is prepare…
