Optical Confinement of a Bose-Einstein Condensate
Bose-Einstein condensates of sodium atoms have been confined in an optical dipole trap using a single focused infrared laser beam. This eliminates the restrictions of magnetic traps for further studies of atom lasers and Bose-Einstein condensates. More than 5 3 106 condensed atoms were transferred into the optical trap. Densities of up to 3 3 1015 cm23 of Bose condensed atoms were obtained, all...
متن کاملLocal Spin-Gauge Symmetry of the Bose-Einstein Condensates in Atomic Gases.
The Bose-Einstein condensates of alkali atomic gases are spinor fields with local “spin-gauge” symmetry. This symmetry is manifested by a superfluid velocity us (or gauge field) generated by the Berry phase of the spin field. In “static” traps, us splits the degeneracy of the harmonic energy levels, breaks the inversion symmetry of the vortex nucleation frequency Ωc1, and can lead to vortex gro...
متن کاملFabrication of micro-magnetic traps for cold neutral atoms
Many proposals for quantum information processing require precise control over the motion of neutral atoms, as in the manipulation of coherent matter waves or the confinement and localization of individual atoms. Patterns of micron-sized wires, fabricated lithographically on a flat substrate, can conveniently produce large magnetic-field gradients and curvatures to trap cold atoms and to facili...
متن کاملThe Bose-Einstein Condensate- a Superfluid Gas of Coherent Atoms
Following the theoretical suggestion [2], we have demonstrated a new method to create vortices in Bose-Einstein condensates. Vortices were imprinted into the condensate wavefunction using topological phases. Sodium condensates held in an Ioffe-Pritchard magnetic trap were transformed from a non-rotating state to one with quantized circulation by adiabatically inverting the magnetic bias field a...
متن کاملSpin-3 chromium Bose-Einstein condensates.
We analyze the physics of spin-3 Bose-Einstein condensates, and, in particular, the new physics expected in ongoing experiments with condensates of chromium atoms. We first discuss the ground-state properties, which, depending on still unknown chromium parameters, and for low magnetic fields, can present various types of phases. We also discuss the spinor dynamics in chromium spinor condensates...
