  1. Characterization of a two-color magneto-optical trap for a spin-squeezed optical lattice clock

    We experimentally realize a magneto-optical trap (MOT) for ytterbium that simultaneously scatters light from two atomic transitions, in order to reduce the minimum magnetic field gradient required for trapping atoms. From the experimental data, we propose a model of the MOT where one transition is …

  2. On the Generation of Entanglement in Ytterbium Clock Atoms and a Novel Interpretation of the Madelung Fluid Theory of Quantum Mechanics

    … entanglement to improve metrology in an optical lattice clock atom Ytterbium-171. Furhtermore, I present a novel interpretation of the Madelung Theory of Quantum Mechanics, namely that of a particle-fluid decomposition and it's consequences. In more detail, in one experiment, we …

  3. Towards spin squeezed ¹⁷¹Yb atomic clock beyond the standard quantum limit

    State-of-the-art atomic clocks have fractional frequency instability of 6 x 10-17 at 1 s averaging time, and are aiming for even higher stability. One of the main factors limiting this stability is the standard quantum limit (SQL) of quantum projection noise, which can be overcome by spin …

  4. Cavity quantum electrodynamics with ensembles of ytterbium-171

    … of cavity quantum electrodynamics to an atomic optical lattice clock. We design and implement a unique experimental cavity structure, with a small radius of curvature mirror on one side and a large mirror on the other side. With this structure, we are able to probe ytterbium-171 atoms in both …
