Optischer Messplatz für Yb Ionen

申请“Optischer Messplatz für Yb Ionen”的装置将允许冷却被捕获的Yb离子，并在陷阱中探测它们。然后，Yb离子的冷晶体与简并的Rb原子相互作用。这将使我们能够访问一个新的、混合的量子多体系统，并对其进行详细的研究。中心目标将是了解超冷Rb原子与捕获在复合微制造原子-离子陷阱中的单晶或小晶体Yb离子的碰撞。

The apparatus applied for “Optischer Messplatz für Yb Ionen” will allow to cool trapped Yb ions and to detect them in the trap. Cold crystals of Yb ions are then interacting with degenerate Rb atoms. This will allow us to access a new, hybrid, quantum many-body system and study it in great detail. The central objective will be to understand collisions of ultracold Rb atoms with single or small crystals of Yb ions trapped in a combined micro-fabricated atom-ion trap.
