A steady-state magneto-optical trap (MOT) of fermionic strontium atoms operating on the 7.5 kHz-wide ${^1mathrm{S}_0} - {^3mathrm{P}_1}$ transition is demonstrated. This MOT features $8.4 times 10^{7}$ atoms, a loading rate of $1.3times 10^{7}$atoms/s, and an average temperature of 12 $mu$K. These parameters make it well suited to serve as a source of atoms for continuous-wave superradiant lasers operating on strontiums mHz-wide clock transition. Such lasers have only been demonstrated using pulsed Sr sources, limiting their range of applications. Our MOT makes an important step toward continuous operation of these devices, paving the way for continuous-wave active optical clocks.
We report on the experimental realization of a robust and efficient magneto-optical trap for erbium atoms, based on a narrow cooling transition at 583nm. We observe up to $N=2 times 10^{8}$ atoms at a temperature of about $T=15 mu K$. This simple sch
We demonstrate a continuously loaded $^{88}mathrm{Sr}$ magneto-optical trap (MOT) with a steady-state phase-space density of $1.3(2) times 10^{-3}$. This is two orders of magnitude higher than reported in previous steady-state MOTs. Our approach is t
We report on the realization of a magneto-optical trap (MOT) for metastable strontium operating on the 2.92 $mu$m transition between the energy levels $5s5p~^3mathrm{P}_2$ and $5s4d~^3mathrm{D}_3$. The strontium atoms are initially captured in a MOT
An accurate measurement of the bunching of photons in the fluorescent emission from an ultracold ensemble of thermal 87Rb atoms in a steady-state magneto-optical trap is presented. Time-delayed-intensity-interferometry (TDII) performed with a 5-nanos
Highly stable laser sources based on narrow atomic transitions provide a promising platform for direct generation of stable and accurate optical frequencies. Here we investigate a simple system operating in the high-temperature regime of cold atoms.
