On 5.7.16, we have installed our microscope objective lenses, which are located inside the vacuum chamber. The lenses are fully UHV compatible, bakeable, non-magnetic and specified to diffraction limited performance at NA 0.75 at several relevant wavelengths. The lenses have been designed and manufactured in cooperation with Special Optics Inc. They will enable us to image and to manipulate ultra cold atoms with high spatial resolution.

Observing the Influence of Reduced Dimensionality on Fermionic Superfluids

Understanding the origins of unconventional superconductivity has been a major focus of condensed matter physics for many decades. While many questions remain unanswered, experiments have found that the systems with the highest critical temperatures tend to be layered materials where...

Excitation Spectrum and Superfluid Gap of an Ultracold Fermi Gas

Ultracold atomic gases are a powerful tool to experimentally study strongly correlated quantum many-body systems. In particular, ultracold Fermi gases with tunable interactions have allowed to realize the famous BEC-BCS crossover from a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of molecules to a...
