Narrow-line magneto-optical trap for erbium

open access: yes, 2012
We report on the experimental realization of a robust and efficient magneto-optical trap for erbium atoms, based on a narrow cooling transition at 583nm. We observe up to $N=2 \times 10^{8}$ atoms at a temperature of about $T=15 \mu K$.

Magneto-optical trapping forces for atoms and molecules with complex level structures

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
Laser cooling and magneto-optical trapping of molecules typically involves multiple transitions driven by several laser frequencies. We analyze how magneto-optical trapping forces depend on the angular momenta, F _l and F _u , and the g -factors, g _l ...

An Asymmetric Magneto-Optical Trap

open access: yes, 2010
In this article we have presented experimental and theoretical works on the asymmetric magneto-optical trap. In Sec. 2, we have studied parametric resonance in a magneto-optical trap. We have described a theoretical aspect of parametric resonance by the analytic and numerical methods.

All-Optical Production of Chromium Bose-Einstein Condensates

open access: yes, 2008
We report on the production of ^52Cr Bose Einstein Condensates (BEC) with an all-optical method. We first load 5.10^6 metastable chromium atoms in a 1D far-off-resonance optical trap (FORT) from a Magneto Optical Trap (MOT), by combining the use of Radio

Compact ultracold electron source based on a grating magneto-optical trap

open access: yesPhysical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2019
The ultrafast and ultracold electron source, based on near-threshold photoionization of a laser-cooled and trapped atomic gas, offers a unique combination of low transverse beam emittance and high bunch charge. Its use is however still limited because of

Approximated center-of-mass motion for systems of interacting particles with space- and velocity-dependent friction and anharmonic potential

open access: yes, 2014
We study the center-of-mass motion in systems of trapped interacting particles with space- and velocity-dependent friction and anharmonic traps. Our approach, based on a dynamical ansatz assuming a fixed density profile, allows us to obtain information ...

Vibrational branching ratios and hyperfine structure of BH and its suitability for laser cooling

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2014
The simple structure of the BH molecule makes it an excellent candidate for direct laser cooling. We measure the branching ratios for the decay of the A^{1}Pi (v'=0) state to vibrational levels of the ground state, X^{1}Sigma^{+}, and find that they are ...

Sub-Doppler Cooling, State Preparation, and Optical Trapping of a Triel Atom

open access: yesPRX Quantum
Ultracold gases of atoms from main group III (group 13) of the periodic table, also known as “triel elements,” have great potential for a new generation of quantum matter experiments.

Manufacturing a thin wire electrostatic trap (TWIST) for ultracold polar molecules

open access: yes, 2007
We present a detailed description on how to build a Thin WIre electroStatic Trap (TWIST) for ultracold polar molecules. It is the first design of an electrostatic trap that can be superimposed directly onto a magneto optical trap (MOT).
