Excitation and photoionization of laser-cooled atoms in the AC-driven magneto-optical trap (AC-MOT), using resonant and non-resonant radiation
Results of experiments involving the manipulation of atoms using laser radiation are presented. A high-density trap of potassium atoms was created using an AC-driven magneto-optical trap (AC-MOT), loaded from a Zeeman-slowed atomic beam. The AC-MOT was operated in a pulsed mode, with a trapping lase...
