Resonator-enhanced optical dipole trap for fermionic lithium atoms
Resonator-enhanced optical dipole trap for fermionic lithium atoms
We demonstrate a novel optical dipole trap which is based on the enhancement of the optical power density of a Nd:YAG laser beam in a resonator. The trap is particularly suited for experiments with ultracold gases, as it combines a potential depth of order 1 mK with storage times of …
