Optical trapping and cooling of glass microspheres

Tongcang Li, Simon Kheifets, David Medellín +1 more

We report optical trapping of glass microspheres in air and vacuum, and measurement of Brownian motion of single microspheres at different pressures. We are working on cooling the center-of-mass motion of a trapped microsphere.

Rapid cooling of the in-plane motion of two-dimensional ion crystals in a Penning trap to millikelvin temperatures

Wes Johnson, Athreya Shankar, John Zaris +2 more

The authors propose a readily implementable technique for the efficient cooling of low-frequency planar motion in large two-dimensional ion crystals in Penning traps. The approach enables rapid cooling to millikelvin temperatures within a few milliseconds, paving the way for sub-Doppler laser cooling and improved quantum information experiments with two-dimensional trapped ion crystals.
