Ultracold atomic Fermi-Bose mixtures in bichromatic optical dipole traps: a novel route to study fermion superfluidity
The study of low density, ultracold atomic Fermi gases is a promising avenue to understand fermion superfluidity from first principles. One technique currently used to bring Fermi gases in the degenerate regime is sympathetic cooling through a reservoir made of an ultracold Bose gas. We discuss a proposal for trapping and cooling of two-species Fermi-Bose mixtures into optical dipole traps made...
متن کاملCooling dynamics of ultracold two-species Fermi-Bose mixtures.
We compare strategies for evaporative and sympathetic cooling of two-species Fermi-Bose mixtures in single-color and two-color optical dipole traps. We show that in the latter case a large heat capacity of the bosonic species can be maintained during the entire cooling process. This could allow one to efficiently achieve a deep Fermi degeneracy regime having at the same time a significant therm...
متن کاملQuantum Degeneracy in an Atomic Fermi-Fermi-Bose Mixture
This thesis deals with dilute fermionic and bosonic quantum gases in the nK temperature regime. In the work presented here, the first quantum-degenerate mixture of two different fermionic atomic species and the first triple-degenerate Fermi-Fermi-Bose mixture were produced. The quantum-degenerate mixtures were realized using sympathetic cooling of the fermionic species 6Li and 40K by an evapora...
متن کاملLiNaK: Multi-Species Apparatus for the Study of Ultracold Quantum Degenerate Mixtures
This thesis describes the construction of a versatile apparatus to study ultracold quantum mixtures capable of simultaneously cooling fermionic Li and K, as well as the bosonic K. The main features of the experimental setup are presented, in particular the addition of a new species Na, which has enabled the study of the Bose-Fermi mixture Na-K. Three main experimental benchmarks are outlined: f...
متن کاملFermi-Bose and Bose-Bose K-Rb Quantum Degenerate Mixtures
We describe the properties of mixtures composed by potassium and rubidium atoms, simultaneously trapped in a magnetic potential. Potassium isotopes are cooled down to quantum degeneracy by means of sympathetic cooling with rubidium [1]. We can produce both a two-species Bose-Einstein condensate [2] mixing together Rb and K, and a degenerate system composed by a Fermi gas of K atoms and a Bose-E...
