Type of internship
Expérimental Description
The internship will take place in the ytterbium lattice clocks team at LTE, Observatoire de Paris. Two topics are proposed in parallel: the design and the construction of a 578 nm source based on non-linear optics, and the demonstration of an atomic drain technique aiming at shelving atoms in metastable states so as to decouple the dynamics of a magneto-optical trap from the capture in a deep optical lattice.
