Trapping of single atoms in metasurface tweezer arrays

​

Nov 11, 2024

Check out our latest work on the trapping of strontium atoms in optical tweezer arrays generated via holographic metasurfaces. We demonstrate a high degree of array uniformity in terms of trap depth, trap frequency, and positional accuracy. Furthermore, we show that - due to sub-micrometer pixel sizes and high pixel densities - holographic metasurfaces open a path towards optical tweezer arrays with more than 100,000 traps. A big thank you to the TweeSr team and our collaborators at the Nanfang Yu lab for the amazing work!
