In this work, a broadband 1071 nm crossed optical dipole trap was loaded simultaneously
from a two-atomic-species K-Rb magneto-optical trap. The number of atoms loaded into the
dipole trap, for both species, was characterized as a function of different laser parameters
and loading procedures. The best observed loading procedure for K is explained by the ac
Stark shift of the hyperfine states involved in the D 2 transition. For the optimum conditions,
the dipole trap has about 3× 10 6 39 K atoms at an atomic density of 7× 10 12 cm− 3 and 2× …
In this work, a broadband 1071 nm crossed optical dipole trap was loaded simultaneously from a two-atomic-species K-Rb magneto-optical trap. The number of atoms loaded into the dipole trap, for both species, was characterized as a function of different laser parameters and loading procedures. The best observed loading procedure for K is explained by the ac Stark shift of the hyperfine states involved in the transition. For the optimum conditions, the dipole trap has about K atoms at an atomic density of cm and Rb atoms at an atomic density of cm, with temperatures of 22 and 10 K, respectively. Finally, by studying the time evolution of both species trapped in the crossed optical dipole trap, we have observed a nonexponential decay associated with heteronuclear two-body losses. Such losses may be due to KRb photoassociation by the broadband 1071 nm laser.
