Description:
Author(s): Alexander Dunning, Rachel Gregory, James Bateman, Matthew Himsworth, and Tim Freegarde We report the 1D cooling of Rb 85 atoms using a velocity-dependent optical force based upon Ramsey matter-wave interferometry. Using stimulated Raman transitions between ground hyperfine states, 12 cycles of the interferometer sequence cool a freely moving atom cloud from 21 to 3 μ K . This pulsed ana… [Phys. Rev.
