Collisional losses from a light-force atom trap.
Spontaneous-force light traps' have provided a way to obtain relatively deep static traps for neutral atoms. These allow one to produce samples containing large numbers of very cold atoms. In this paper we present an experimental study of the collisions which eject atoms from such a trap. These collisions are of considerable interest because the temperatures of the trapped atoms (10 K) are far ...
متن کاملMicrobead dynamics in optical trap assisted nanopatterning
Optical near-field techniques allow one to overcome diffraction by positioning an optical element in close proximity to the surface of interest. In optical trap assisted nanopatterning, this optical element is a microbead optically trapped above the substrate in a liquid environment. Using high-speed microscopy, we show that under certain conditions, the laser pulse creates a gas bubble under t...
متن کاملOptical Trap Assisted Nanoscale Laser Direct-Write Patterning
Laser direct-write patterning methods are traditionally limited by the diffraction limit to size scales several hundreds of nanometers at the minimum. In this work, we demonstrate a new method of laser based patterning that overcomes these limitations by taking advantage of near-field enhancement at the surface of dielectric microspheres. Polystyrene microspheres are trapped in CW Bessel beam l...
متن کاملNon-spherical particles for optical trap assisted nanopatterning.
Optical trap assisted nanopatterning is a laser direct-write technique that uses an optically trapped microsphere as a near-field objective. The type of feature that one can create with this technique depends on several factors, one of which is the shape of the microbead. In this paper, we examine how the geometry of the bead affects the focus of the light through a combination of experiments a...
متن کاملParallel optical trap assisted nanopatterning on rough surfaces.
There exist many optical lithography techniques for generating nanostructures on hard, flat surfaces over large areas. However, few techniques are able to create such patterns on soft materials or surfaces with pre-existing structure. To address this need, we demonstrate the use of parallel optical trap assisted nanopatterning (OTAN) to provide an efficient and robust direct-write method of pro...
