Journal ArticleDOI
Fast quantum gates for neutral atoms
TL;DR: Several schemes for implementing a fast two-qubit quantum gate for neutral atoms with the gate operation time much faster than the time scales associated with the external motion of the atoms in the trapping potential are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generating solitons by phase engineering of a bose-einstein condensate
Johannes Hecker Denschlag,Jesse E. Simsarian,David L. Feder,David L. Feder,Charles W. Clark,Lee A. Collins,J. Cubizolles,J. Cubizolles,Lu Deng,Edward W. Hagley,Kristian Helmerson,William P. Reinhardt,William P. Reinhardt,Steven L. Rolston,Barry I. Schneider,William D. Phillips +15 more
TL;DR: A quantum state was designed and produced by optically imprinting a phase pattern onto a BEC of sodium atoms, and matter-wave interferometry with spatially resolved imaging was used to analyze the resultant phase distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Creation of an Ultracold Neutral Plasma
TL;DR: In this article, an ultracold neutral plasmas with an electron temperature as low as Te 100 mK, an ion temperature at low as Ti 10 mK and densities as high as n 2 3 10 9 cm 23 was obtained by photoionization of laser-cooled xenon atoms.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Well-Collimated Quasi-Continuous Atom Laser
Edward W. Hagley,Lu Deng,Lu Deng,Mikio Kozuma,J Wen,Kristian Helmerson,Steven L. Rolston,William D. Phillips +7 more
TL;DR: Extraction of sodium atoms from a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) by a coherent, stimulated Raman process is demonstrated and the extracted atomic wave packets strongly overlap, forming a highly directional, quasi-continuous matter wave.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coherent Splitting of Bose-Einstein Condensed Atoms With Optically Induced Bragg Diffraction
Mikio Kozuma,Lu Deng,Edward W. Hagley,J Wen,R. Lutwak,Kristian Helmerson,Steven L. Rolston,William D. Phillips +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors observed Bragg diffraction of a Bose-Einstein condensate of sodium atoms by a moving, periodic, optical potential and observed the trajectory of the split atomic wave packets in the confining magnetic potential.
