Quantum-Atom Optics
|
Quantum-Atom Optics links the fields of quantum optics, based on the quantum or particle nature of light, and atom optics, which
explores the wave-like nature of atoms. The group includes the Swinburne node of ACQAO, the ARC Centre of Excellence for Quantum-Atom
Optics, and has four projects: BEC on an Atom Chip, Molecular BEC, Magnetic Lattices and Quantum Coherence.

BEC on an Atom Chip
Permanent magnetic film and current-carrying wire technologies are
combined for the production and manipulation of Bose Einstein Condensates. |
|
 |
Molecular BEC
We have produced a Molecular BEC by the association of ultracold fermionic 6Li atoms. |
|
 |
Magnetic Lattice
We have produced a BEC above a Magnetic Lattice which is used to characterise the potential. |
|
 |
Atomic Coherence
Light induced atomic coherence is used to modify the propagation properties and speed of light, and to generate new optical fields at low light intensity. |
