An electron microscope for the detection and manipulation of Rydberg atoms — •Tobias Weber, Torsten Manthey, Julia Grün, Thomas Niederprüm, Vera Guarrera, Giovanni Barontini, and Herwig Ott — Fachbereich Physik, Universität Kaiserslautern

The strong dipole-dipole interaction between Rydberg atoms leads to a huge number of exotic and interesting phenomena (e.g. plasma formation or dipole blockade) that can be studied in the realm of ultracold quantum gases, especially when optical lattices are present. In this poster, we will present a new apparatus for the production, the manipulation and the detection of ultracold Rydberg atoms in optical lattices. The main feature of this apparatus is the presence of a scanning electron microscope inside the vacuum chamber that will allow us the manipulation and the detection of single Rydberg atoms in each lattice site.
