Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Robust Microtrap -- the Combination of Wire Traps and Atom Chips

Book Description
In the presented work, we report about the successful creation of a Rubidium Bose-Einstein condensate. We use so called magnetic wire traps, which are especially simple, as they consist out of a wire and a homogeneous bias field. These wire traps are especially suited for Bose-Einstein condensation. Furthermore complex trapping potentials to manipulate a Bose-Einstein condensate can be realized. We combine 'large' and small scale wire traps. The 'large' scale is realized with a massive copper structure, while for the small wire traps we use the so called atom chip. This combination is promising, because it allowed us to develop a condensation process in the copper structure, which is independent of the structures on the atom chip, and thus the exchange of the 'physics' area. First experiments with the Bose-Einstein condensate are presented and discussed in detail.

One-dimensional Bose-Einstein Condensates in Micro-traps

Book Description
A novel wire-based magneto-optical trap has been demonstrated which enables to collect up to 3x10^8 cold atoms close to the reflecting surface of an atom chip. These atoms are subsequently transferred to micro-traps generated by wires mounted on the atom chip and Bose-Einstein condensation has been achieved. The Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) created in the micro-traps form in the one-dimensional Thomas-Fermi regime. The cross-over between three-dimensional and one-dimensional BECs has been investigated by monitoring the transverse size of the BEC after ballistic expansion. Good agreement to theory has been found. As an application, one-dimensional BECs have been used to implement a microscopic magnetic field sensor. This sensor enables field measurements in a region which is not accessible for today's state-of-the-art sensors. A field sensitivity of 4 nT at a spatial resolution of 3 micrometer has been demonstrated. To investigate the phase-properties of a one-dimensional BEC, coherent splitting of a one-dimensional BEC has been achieved and interferometry on an atom chip has been demonstrated.

ISBN: 3527643923
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
This stimulating discussion of a rapidly developing field is divided into two parts. The first features tutorials in textbook style providing self-contained introductions to the various areas relevant to atom chip research. Part II contains research reviews that provide an integrated account of the current state in an active area of research where atom chips are employed, and explore possible routes of future progress. Depending on the subject, the length of the review and the relative weight of the 'review' and 'outlook' parts vary, since the authors include their own personal view and style in their accounts.

Bose-Einstein Condensates in Magnetic Double Well Potentials
Author: Thorsten Schumm
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
This thesis presents two realizations of magnetic double well potentials for Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) on atom chips. One approach utilizes static magnetic traps, created by current carrying micro wires, manipulating the atoms close to the chip surface. As in all other atom chip experiments, cold atom clouds are found to break up to pieces in the vicinity of the trapping structure. A careful study of the underlying magnetic potential could attribute this fragmentation to current deviations, caused by corrugation of the wire edges. To avoid this effect, a new fabrication technique (electron beam lithography, gold evaporation) was employed to create 700nm cross section wires of significantly improved quality. A BEC was created and successfully transferred to the sub-micron structure, generating the double well. The general qualification of the device could be demonstrated by splitting cold thermal atomic clouds. However, numerous technical problems do yet prevent us from performing the experiment with BECs. The second approach pursued in this thesis combines static magnetic traps with oscillating (RF) magnetic fields and realizes a double well in the emerging adiabatic dressed potential. This scheme can be realized far from the chip surface, fragmentation does not occur and Bose-Einstein condensates could be split successfully. We realize a matter wave interferometer by recombining the two clouds in free expansion. The arising interference patterns reveal a narrow distribution of the relative phase, indicating a coherent splitting process. We monitor the phase evolution throughout and after the splitting and control it by deliberately unbalancing the double well.

Fundamentals of Picoscience
Author: Klaus D. Sattler
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1466505095
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 766
Book Description
Now ubiquitous in public discussions about cutting-edge science and technology, nanoscience has generated many advances and inventions, from the development of new quantum mechanical methods to far-reaching applications in electronics and medical diagnostics. Ushering in the next technological era, Fundamentals of Picoscience focuses on the instrumentation and experiments emerging at the picometer scale. One picometer is the length of a trillionth of a meter. Compared to a human cell of typically ten microns, this is roughly ten million times smaller. In this state-of-the-art book, international scientists and researchers at the forefront of the field present the materials and methods used at the picoscale. They address the key challenges in developing new instrumentation and techniques to visualize and measure structures at this sub-nanometer level. With numerous figures, the book will help you: Understand how picoscience is an extension of nanoscience Determine which experimental technique to use in your research Connect basic studies to the development of next-generation picoelectronic devices The book covers various approaches for detecting, characterizing, and imaging at the picoscale. It then presents picoscale methods ranging from scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) to spectroscopic approaches at sub-nanometer spatial and energy resolutions. It also covers novel picoscale structures and picometer positioning systems. The book concludes with picoscale device applications, including single molecule electronics and optical computers. Introductions in each chapter explain basic concepts, define technical terms, and give context to the main material.
