Narrow-line magneto-optical trap for dysprosium atoms
, 2014 We present our technique to create a magneto-optical trap for dysprosium atoms using the narrow-line cooling transition at 626$\,$nm to achieve suitable conditions for direct loading into an optical dipole trap. The magneto-optical trap is loaded from an

Averaging out magnetic forces with fast rf-sweeps in an optical trap for metastable chromium atoms [PDF]
, 2007 We introduce a novel type of time-averaged trap, in which the internal state of the atoms is rapidly modulated to modify magnetic trapping potentials. In our experiment, fast radiofrequency (rf) linear sweeps flip the spin of atoms at a fast rate, which ...

Magneto-Optical Trap with Millimeter Ball Lenses [PDF]
Physical Review Applied, 2020 We present a magneto-optical trap (MOT) design based on millimeter ball lenses, contained within a metal cube of 0.75$^{\prime \prime}$ side length. We present evidence of trapping approximately $4.2\times 10^5$ of $^{85}$Rb atoms with a number density of $3.2\times 10^9$ atoms/cm$^{3}$ and a loading time of 1.3 s.

Formation of ultracold LiCs molecules [PDF]
, 2006 We present the first observation of ultracold LiCs molecules. The molecules are formed in a two-species magneto-optical trap and detected by two-photon ionization and time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The production rate coefficient is found to be in the

Collisions in a dual-species magneto-optical trap of molecules and atoms
New Journal of Physics, 2021 We study inelastic collisions between CaF molecules and ^87 Rb atoms in a dual-species magneto-optical trap. The presence of atoms increases the loss rate of molecules from the trap.

A high flux source of cold strontium atoms
, 2015 We describe an experimental apparatus capable of achieving a high loading rate of strontium atoms in a magneto-optical trap operating in a high vacuum environment. A key innovation of this setup is a two dimensional magneto-optical trap deflector located
