Experimental Quantum Optics

9870223Mossberg这项工作包括两个项目，研究实验量子光学的基本问题。 其中一个项目将研究相干驱动系统中激光增益的起源和特征。 实验将确定是否驱动原子增益实际上是控制，增强或减少的环境真空的实验剪裁。 第二个项目是开发一种用于捕获和冷却原子镱的装置。 蓝色冷却后，绿色捕获将提供一个低温样品的两个级别的原子用于量子光学研究和各种冷原子的工作。

9870223MossbergThis work consists of two projects that investigate fundamental problems in experimental quantum optics. One project will examine the origin and character of laser gain in coherently driven systems. Experiments will determine whether driven atom gain is actually controlled, enhanced or diminished by experimental tailoring of the ambient vacuum. The second project is the development of an apparatus for the trapping and cooling of atomic ytterbium. Blue cooling followed by green trapping will provide a low temperature sample of two-level-like atoms for use in quantum optics studies and in diverse cold atom work.
