We present a compact, long-term nearly continuous operation of a room-temperature Ca$^+$ optical clock setup towards a transportable clock, achieving an overall systematic uncertainty of $4.8\times 10^{-18}$ and an uptime rate of 97.8% over…
Accurate and extensive atomic data are essential for spectroscopic analyses of stellar atmospheres and other astronomical objects. We present energy levels, lifetimes, and transition probabilities for neutral nitrogen, the sixth most…
Attosecond four-wave mixing spectroscopy using an XUV pulse and two noncollinear near-infrared pulses is employed to measure Rydberg wavepacket dynamics resulting from extreme ultraviolet excitation of a 3s electron in atomic argon into a…
Ab initio method based on a complex-scaling approach and aimed at a rigorous QED description of autoionizing states is worked out. The autoionizing-state binding energies are treated nonperturbatively in $\alpha Z$ and include all the…
The ionization of atoms with sequences of attosecond pulses gives rise to excited ionic states that are entangled with the emitted photoelectron. Still, the ionic ensemble preserves some coherence that can be controlled through the laser…
The energy and the angular distributions of photoelectrons are shown to be tunable by choosing the time and the spatial phase structure of the driving fields. These conclusions are derived from quantum mechanical calculations done within a…
We demonstrate a spin-precession method to observe and analyze multi-level coherence between all hyperfine levels in the $X ^2\Sigma^+,N=0$ ground state of barium monofluoride ($^{138}$Ba$^{19}$F). The signal is sensitive to the…
Deep laser cooling of atoms, ions, and molecules facilitates the study of fundamental physics as well as applied research. In this work, we report on the narrow-line laser cooling of thulium atoms at the wavelength of $506.2\,\textrm{nm}$…
The improvement of the multi-mode capability of quantum memory can further improve the utilization efficiency of the quantum memory and reduce the requirement of quantum communication for storage units. In this letter, we experimentally…
We report on the direct observation of resonant electric dipole-dipole interactions in a cubic array of atoms in the many-excitation limit. The interactions, mediated by single-atom couplings to the shared electromagnetic vacuum, are shown…
We study Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) of a cascade three-level atom involving 80$D_{5/2}$ state in a strong interaction regime employing a cesium ultracold cloud. In our experiment, a strong coupling laser couples…
We consider the long-range states expected for complexes formed from an alkali-metal diatomic molecule in a singlet state and an alkali-metal atom. We explore the structure of the Hamiltonian for such systems, and the couplings between the…
To achieve Bose-Einstein condensation, one may implement evaporative cooling by dynamically regulating the power of laser beams forming the optical dipole trap. We propose and experimentally demonstrate a protocol of Bayesian optimization…
We examine the effect of a parasitic rf magnetic field, attributed to ion trapping, on the highly anticipated nuclear clock based on $^{229}$Th$^{3+}$ [C. J. Campbell et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 120802 (2012)]. The rf magnetic field…
This paper presents a compact low-temperature atomic vector magnetometer for weak field measurements, using an atomic cell containing two orthogonal multipass cavities. At the working temperature of 75 $^\circ$C, the magnetic field…
With the improvement of high-precision optical clock, the higher-order multipolar interaction between atoms and light needs quantitative evaluation. However for the Sr clock, the differential dynamic E2-M1 polarizability at the magic…
Accurate calculations of phase lag associated with coherent control where an excited system decays into more than one product channel have recently been reported for atomic barium in PhysRevA.105.013113 (2022). The present study extends the…
In this study, we added vacancies adjacent to a Si/Ge interface to create a disordered structure. The structure was then relaxed using various strategies. We applied Procrustes shape analysis for disorder quantification and identifying…
A crucial step towards enabling real-world applications for quantum sensing devices such as Rydberg atom electric field sensors is reducing their size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C) requirements without significantly reducing…
We propose and demonstrate a new method for Doppler cooling trapped-ion crystals where the distribution of micromotion amplitudes may be large and uneven. The technique uses pulses of Doppler cooling light synchronized with the trap RF that…
