Nanowire atomchip traps for sub-micron atom-surface distances (2009)
Salem, R., Japha, Y., Chabé, J., Hadad, B., Keil, M., Milton, K. A., ...
We present an analysis of magnetic traps for ultracold atoms based on current-carrying wires with sub-micron dimensions. We analyze the physical limitations of these conducting wires, as well as how...
Trapping cold atoms using surface-grown carbon nanotubes (2008)
Petrov, P. G., Machluf, S., Younis, S., Macaluso, R., David, T., Hadad, B., ...
We present a feasibility study for loading cold atomic clouds into magnetic traps created by single-wall carbon nanotubes grown directly onto dielectric surfaces. We show that atoms may be captured...
