Abstract

This experiment is a novel setup for a very versatile two species Bose-Fermi mixture quantum gas experiment for ⁸⁷Rb and ⁴⁰K in optical potentials. Development of improved new technologies are emphasised in this project and cover self-made vacuum chambers realised with different techniques, a miniaturised, ultra stable laser system and a compact oil-cooled coil design for magnetic trapping and transport of ultracold atom clouds.
