Microscopic Control and Detection of Ultracold Strontium in Optical-Tweezer Arrays
Microscopic Control and Detection of Ultracold Strontium in Optical-Tweezer Arrays
Optical tweezers provide a versatile platform for the manipulation and detection of single atoms. Here, we use optical tweezers to demonstrate a set of tools for the microscopic control of atomic strontium, which has two valence electrons. Compared to the single-valence-electron atoms typically used with tweezers, strontium has a more …
