Coherent excitation of ultracold atoms between ground and Rydberg states
This thesis describes the development of an experiment to study coherent population transfer between ground states, and between ground and Rydberg states, in ultracold atoms. In order to study coherent transfer between hyperfine ground states a pair of phase stable Raman beams is required. Both beam...
