For unconventional problems, look for unconventional solutions.

The fiber lab uses a dentist drill for drilling in tiny things.

The rubidium experiment is shiny! But the backstory is sad. Due to a broken ion detector the vacuum had to be opened for a greater operation. This is the new ion detector. We have high hopes for this one!

We have successfully measured the first EIT signal in our new lab in Odense. We still have to optimize the signal a bit and especially start to optically pump our atoms. But this is already a good start.

We successfully captured the first Rubidium atoms after the move to Odense and can already load them into the optical dipole trap. Next we will align the probes.

During the night, the fluoresence of the magneto-optical trap is much brighter?
