    Measurements of thermodynamic and transport properties of EuC2_2: a low-temperature analogue of EuO

    Full text link
    EuC2_2 is a ferromagnet with a Curie-temperature of TC15T_C \simeq 15\,K. It is semiconducting with the particularity that the resistivity drops by about 5 orders of magnitude on cooling through TCT_C, which is therefore called a metal-insulator transition. In this paper we study the magnetization, specific heat, thermal expansion, and the resistivity around this ferromagnetic transition on high-quality EuC2_2 samples. At TCT_C we observe well defined anomalies in the specific heat cp(T)c_p(T) and thermal expansion α(T)\alpha(T) data. The magnetic contributions of cp(T)c_p(T) and α(T)\alpha(T) can satisfactorily be described within a mean-field theory, taking into account the magnetization data. In zero magnetic field the magnetic contributions of the specific heat and thermal expansion fulfill a Gr\"uneisen-scaling, which is not preserved in finite fields. From an estimation of the pressure dependence of TCT_C via Ehrenfest's relation, we expect a considerable increase of TCT_C under applied pressure due to a strong spin-lattice coupling. Furthermore the influence of weak off stoichiometries δ\delta in EuC2±δ_{2 \pm \delta} was studied. It is found that δ\delta strongly affects the resistivity, but hardly changes the transition temperature. In all these aspects, the behavior of EuC2_2 strongly resembles that of EuO.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure

    A Quantum Tweezer for Atoms

    Full text link
    We propose a quantum tweezer for extracting a desired number of neutral atoms from a reservoir. A trapped Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is used as the reservoir, taking advantage of its coherent nature, which can guarantee a constant outcome. The tweezer is an attractive quantum dot, which may be generated by red-detuned laser light. By moving with certain speeds, the dot can extract a desired number of atoms from the BEC through Landau-Zener tunneling. The feasibility of our quantum tweezer is demonstrated through realistic and extensive model calculations.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figures Revised versio

    Optimized Synthesis of Tetrafluoroterephthalic Acid: A Versatile Linking Ligand for the Construction of New Coordination Polymers and Metal-Organic Frameworks

    Pure 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroterephthalic acid (H(2)tfBDC) is obtained in high yields (95%) by reacting 1,2,4,5-tetrafluorobenzene with a surplus (>2 equiv) of n-butyllithium in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and subsequent carbonation with CO2 without any extensive purification procedure. A single crystal X-ray structure analysis of H2tfBDC (1) confirms former data obtained for a deuterated sample (P (1) over bar, Z = 1). Recrystallization from water/acetone leads to single crystals of H(2)tfBDC center dot 2H(2)O (2, P2(1)/c, Z. 2), where an extensive hydrogen bonding network is found. By reacting H2tfBDC with an aqueous ammonia solution, single crystals of (NH4)(2)tfBDC (3, C2/m, Z. 2) are obtained. 3 is thermally stable up to 250 degrees C and shows an enhanced solubility in water compared to H(2)tfBDC. Monosubstituted 2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzoic acid (H(2)tfBC, 4) is obtained by reacting 1,2,4,5-tetrafluorobenzene with stoichiometric amounts (1 equiv) of n-butyllithium in THF. Its crystal structure (Fdd2, Z = 16) shows dimeric units as characteristic structural feature

    Efficient magneto-optical trapping of Yb atoms with a violet laser diode

    Full text link
    We report the first efficient trapping of rare-earth Yb atoms with a high-power violet laser diode (LD). An injection-locked violet LD with a 25 mW frequency-stabilized output was used for the magneto-optical trapping (MOT) of fermionic as well as bosonic Yb isotopes. A typical number of 4×1064\times 10^6 atoms for 174^{174}Yb with a trap density of 1×108/\sim 1\times10^8/cm3^3 was obtained. A 10 mW violet external-cavity LD (ECLD) was used for the one-dimensional (1D) slowing of an effusive Yb atomic beam without a Zeeman slower resulting in a 35-fold increase in the number of trapped atoms. The overall characteristics of our compact violet MOT, e.g., the loss time of 1 s, the loading time of 400 ms, and the cloud temperature of 0.7 mK, are comparable to those in previously reported violet Yb MOTs, yet with a greatly reduced cost and complexity of the experiment.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, 1 table, Phys.

    Time-resolved and state-selective detection of single freely falling atoms

    Full text link
    We report on the detection of single, slowly moving Rubidium atoms using laser-induced fluorescence. The atoms move at 3 m/s while they are detected with a time resolution of 60 microseconds. The detection scheme employs a near-resonant laser beam that drives a cycling atomic transition, and a highly efficient mirror setup to focus a large fraction of the fluorescence photons to a photomultiplier tube. It counts on average 20 photons per atom.Comment: 6 pages, 7 figure

    A single atom detector integrated on an atom chip: fabrication, characterization and application

    Full text link
    We describe a robust and reliable fluorescence detector for single atoms that is fully integrated into an atom chip. The detector allows spectrally and spatially selective detection of atoms, reaching a single atom detection efficiency of 66%. It consists of a tapered lensed single-mode fiber for precise delivery of excitation light and a multi-mode fiber to collect the fluorescence. The fibers are mounted in lithographically defined holding structures on the atom chip. Neutral 87Rb atoms propagating freely in a magnetic guide are detected and the noise of their fluorescence emission is analyzed. The variance of the photon distribution allows to determine the number of detected photons / atom and from there the atom detection efficiency. The second order intensity correlation function of the fluorescence shows near-perfect photon anti-bunching and signs of damped Rabi-oscillations. With simple improvements one can boost the detection efficiency to > 95%.Comment: 24 pages, 11 figure
