Cornell Researchers Demonstrate Standing-Wave EIT Cooling for Trapped Ions

The Quantum InsiderSeptember 21, 20263 min read

Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — Nullspace, a leading provider of advanced electromagnetic simulation software, today announced that researchers at Cornell University, led by Professor Karan Mehta, used Nullspace ES to support the first experimental demonstration of standing-wave electromagnetically-induced-transparency (EIT) cooling for trapped ions, building on theoretical predictions dating back to 1992. Using Nullspace ES to […]

Cornell University researchers used Nullspace ES to simulate electrostatic fields for a chip-scale ion trap used in the first experimental demonstration of standing-wave EIT cooling for trapped ions. The simulations generated baseline voltage sets for axial confinement, radial mode rotation and sub-micron ion positioning during the experiment. The demonstrated cooling approach achieved higher…
