Microwave trap for atoms and molecules
We demonstrate a trap that confines polarizable particles around the antinode of a standing-wave microwave field. The trap relies only on the polarizability of the particles far from any resonances and so can trap a wide variety of atoms and molecules in a wide range of internal states, including th...
