Laser Cooling with Ultrafast Pulse Trains
Abstract
The work focused on investigating technology development on a novel laser-cooling technique that uses femtosecond lasers to extend the range of ultracold atomic species. It also made significant advances toward a proof-of-principle laser cooling experiment in the ion trap and in construction of the apparatus for laser cooling of hydrogen. We have published a journal article describing the cooling technique [D. Kielpinski, "Laser cooling of atoms and molecules with ultrafast pulses," Phys. Rev. A 73, 063407 (2006)].
