Bose-Einstein condensate in a light-induced vector gauge potential using 1064-nm optical-dipole-trap lasers
Bose-Einstein condensate in a light-induced vector gauge potential using 1064-nm optical-dipole-trap lasers
Using two crossed 1064-nm optical-dipole-trap lasers to be the Raman beams, an effective vector gauge potential for Bose-Einstein condensed ${}^{87}$Rb in the $F=2$ hyperfine ground state is experimentally created. The moderate strength of the Raman coupling still can be achieved when the detuning from atomic resonance is larger than the …
