We demonstrate guiding of cold 85Rb atoms through a 100-micron-diameter hollow core dielectric waveguide using cylindrical hollow modes. We have transported atoms using blue-detuned light in the 1st order, azimuthally-polarized TE01 hollow…
A continuous guided atomic beam of $^{88}\mathrm{Sr}$ with a phase-space density exceeding $10^{-4}$ in the moving frame and a flux of $3 \times 10^{7} \, \mathrm{at \, s^{-1}}$ is demonstrated. This phase-space density is around three…
It is well-known that evaporation can lead to cooling. However, little is known that evaporation can actually create a refrigeration effect, i.e., the vapor phase temperature can drop below the temperature of the cooling wall. This…

Evaporation of a liquid layer on a substrate is examined without the often-used isothermality assumption -- i.e., temperature variations are accounted for. Qualitative estimates show that nonisothermality makes the evaporation rate depend…
