The AMO physics groups at W&M are pursuing research programs at
the undergraduate and PhD levels in ultra-fast physics, laser biophysics,
atomic physics theory, slow light, and ultra-cold matter. Here is a summary of
the AMO research at W&M.
-
Aubin
Group: Ultra-cold AMO physics
The Ultra-Cold AMO Physics group investigates the use of ultra-cold
degenerate fermions for matter-wave interferometry and creating novel many-body
systems.
-
Delos
Group: AMO theory group
The AMO theory group is investigating chaotic systems in both quantum and
classical atomic physics systems with an emphasis on those exhibiting
monodromy.
-
Novikova
Group: Slow-light AMO physics
The Novikova Group studies the coherent interaction of light with atoms to
control and manipulate optical properties of atomic ensembles, such as
Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT), slow and stored light, and
resonant Raman processes.
The AMO research groups jointly operate an Ultra-Fast Laser User Facility
, which consists of a laboratory equipped with a KMLabs femtosecond Ti:Sapph
laser, two optics tables for user experiments, and computer workstations for
data analysis
