Gray molasses, a sub-Doppler cooling technique, effectively increases the phase-space density of cold trapped atoms by utilizing dark and bright states. We present a theoretical view of the technique, as well as a description of the experimental setup and the modifications required for implementing the technique on 87Rb. The results reveal temperatures as low as 8, 64µK and a phase-space density of 1, 97 · 10−8, in a sample of 1, 3 · 106 atoms.5 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Solé, 2023http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/Refredament per làserMelassa grisaTreballs de fi de grauLaser coolingGray molassesBachelor's thesesGray Molasses on Rubidium-87 atomsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
