Production of 87Rb Bose-Einstein Condensate in an Asymmetric Crossed Optical Dipole Trap

Zhu Ma, Chengyin Han, Xunda Jiang +6 more

We report the production of 87Rb Bose–Einstein condensate in an asymmetric crossed optical dipole trap (ACODT) without the need of an additional dimple laser. In our experiment, the ACODT is formed by two laser beams with different radii to achieve efficient capture and rapid evaporation of laser cooled atoms. Compared to the cooling procedure in a magnetic trap, the atoms are firstly laser cooled and then directly loaded into an ACODT without the pre-evaporative cooling process. In order to determine the optimal parameters for evaporation cooling, we optimize the power ratio of the two beams and the evaporation time to maximize the final atom number left in the ACODT. By loading about 6 × 105 laser cooled atoms in the ACODT, we obtain a pure Bose–Einstein condensate with about 1.4 × 104 atoms after 19 s evaporation. Additionally, we demonstrate that the fringe-type noises in optical density distributions can be reduced via principal component analysis, which correspondingly improves the reliability of temperature measurement.

Production of dual species Bose–Einstein condensates of 39K and 87Rb*

Cheng-Dong Mi, Khan Sadiq Nawaz, Peng-Jun Wang +4 more

We report the production of 39K and 87Rb Bose–Einstein condensates (BECs) in the lowest hyperfine states | F = 1,mF = 1 〉 simultaneously. We collect atoms in bright/dark magneto-optical traps (MOTs) of 39K/87Rb to overcome the light-assisted losses of 39K atoms. Gray molasses cooling on the D1 line of the 39K is used to effectively increase the phase density, which improves the loading efficiency of 39K into the quadrupole magnetic trap. Simultaneously, the normal molasses is employed for 87Rb. After the microwave evaporation cooling on 87Rb in the optically plugged magnetic trap, the atoms mixture is transferred to a crossed optical dipole trap, where the collisional properties of the two species in different combinations of the hyperfine states are studied. The dual species BECs of 39K and 87Rb are obtained by further evaporative cooling in an optical dipole trap at a magnetic field of 372.6 G with the background repulsive interspecies scattering length a KRb = 34 a 0 (a 0 is the Bohr radius) and the intraspecies scattering length a K = 20.05a 0.
