Three-dimensional optical lattices

Abstract

The interference pattern of several beams of the same frequency generally leads to a space dependent variation of the total intensity and of the local polarization. The light-shift of an atom in such a standing wave is thus space dependent and appears as an optical potential for the atomic motion. The occurrence of quantized vibrational states for the external degrees of freedom was first demonstrated in the ID case on the cesium 6S1/2(F = 4) – 6P3/2(F = 5) transition.1
