Laser Optics of Neutral Atomic Beams

V. I. Balykin, Vladilen S Letokhov

In ordinary optics one exploits the interaction of radiation with matter to manipulate beams of light. One can also turn the tables and control beams of charged or neutral material particles through their interaction with light. There are deep analogies and similarities between these two sorts of optics, even though they involve very different kinds of interactions between matter and radiation. Perhaps one can exploit every such interaction for some kind of “optics”—controlling beams of photons or massive particles. In this article we will describe recent developments in the laser optics of atomic beams—how experimenters are using the radiation pressure of laser light to manipulate neutral atoms.

Effect of different polarized laser radiation in cooling and trapping of polariton

Clautaire Mwebi Ekengoue, J. V. Nguepnang, Donfack B. +2 more

Light-matter interaction is gaining increasing interest at the frontiers of physics as it helps to understand many-body effects and explore their applications in optics and photonics. This research paper aims to investigate the effect of different polarized laser radiations in cooling and trapping process of polariton. Our strength lies in the analysis of the dynamic of polariton cooled and trapped with different types of laser-polarized modes in order to be able to formally recommend to the scientific community the best laser-polarized mode for realizing both theoretical and practical studies based on light-matter (polariton) interactions. From the complete Hamiltonian of the system, we derived the mechanical force and torque acting on the system and the transition probability of finding the system in the excited state using the semi-classical approach under rotating wave approximation (RWA). Our results demonstrate that laser cooling and trapping of polaritons is more appropriate using the plane polarized electric mode (PPEM) laser radiation than other types including the plane polarized electromagnetic mode (PEMM), the transverse polarized electric mode (TEM) and the transverse polarized magnetic mode (TMM), under low coupling strength constant and intense laser radiation. This finding is highly valuable for researchers and experts focused on optics and photonics as it provides new insights for advancing light–matter (polariton) interaction studies and potential quantum computing and teleportation applications.
