We use amplified programmable shaped optical pulses to engineer Rydberg wavefunctions. The method employs a computer-controlled liquid crystal pulse shaper. The wavefunctions, which are nonstationary states, are monitored by observing temporal interference via the optical Ramsey method.

We used a computer controlled LCD to shape the spectrum of a short laser pulse which was then used to excite a shaped atomic wavepacket. We use amplified programmable shaped optical pulses to engineer Rydberg wavefunctions. The method employs a computer-controlled liquid crystal pulse shaper[l]. The wavefunctions, which are nonstationary states, are monitored by observing temporal interference via the optical Ramsey method[2,3].

Programmable cesium Rydberg wave packets

Douglass W. Schumacher, J. H. Hoogenraad, Dan Pinkos +1 more

We have used amplified, programmable, shaped optical pulses to engineer Rydberg wave packets in cesium. Our apparatus employs a computer-controlled liquid-crystal pulse shaper which could control either the phase or the magnitude of the pulse's spectrum. The shaped optical field was analyzed via cross correlation and frequency-resolved optical gating. The wave-packet evolution was analyzed by monitoring temporal interference via the optical Ramsey method to obtain both auto- and cross-interferograms of the engineered wave packet.
