Rydberg atoms with principal quantum number n⪢ 1 have exaggerated atomic properties
including dipole-dipole interactions that scale as n 4 and radiative lifetimes that scale as n 3 …

We introduce a new continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) protocol, self-
referenced CV-QKD, that eliminates the need for transmission of a high-power local …

We demonstrate laser frequency stabilization to excited state transitions using cascade
electromagnetically induced transparency. Using a room temperature Rb vapor cell as a …

The ac Stark effect was used to induce resonant energy transfer between translationally cold
Rb 85 Rydberg atoms. When a 28.5 GHz dressing field was set at specific field strengths, the …

Optical resonators are used for the realisation of ultra-stable frequency lasers. The use of
high reflectivity multi-band coatings allows the frequency locking of several lasers of different …

Laser cooling and trapping are central to modern atomic physics. It has been roughly three
decades since laser cooling techniques produced ultracold atoms, leading to rapid …

We present a stabilization technique developed to lock and dynamically tune the resonant
frequency of a moderate finesse Fabry-Pérot (FP) cavity used in precision atom-cavity …

We present a simple technique for stabilization of a laser frequency off resonance using the
Faraday effect in a heated vapor cell with an applied magnetic field. In particular, we …

Coherent superpositions of the 49 s 1/2 and 48 s 1/2 Rydberg states of cold 87 Rb atoms
were studied near the surface of an atom chip. The superpositions were created and …

Interferometric wavelength meters have attained frequency resolutions down to the
megahertz range. In particular, Fizeau interferometers, which have no moving parts, are …
