We demonstrate the ability to excite atoms at well-defined, programmable locations in a magneto-optical trap, either to the continuum (ionisation), or to a Rydberg state. To this end, excitation laser light is shaped into arbitrary…

Squeezing of optical fields, used as a powerful resource for many applications, and the radiation properties in the process of high harmonic generation have thus far been considered separately. In this Letter, we want to clarify that the…
