Laser Cooling of an Indium Atomic Beam — •Ruby dela Torre, Jiayu Wang, Bernard Kloeter, Dietmar Haubrich, Ulrich Rasbach, and Dieter Meschede — Institut fuer Angewandte Physik, Universitaet Bonn, Wegelerstr. 8, 53115 Bonn, Germany

Laser cooled atomic beams are the method of choice for Atomic Nanofabrication (ANF) where high deposition rates are needed. We have realized the transverse cooling of an Indium atomic beam. One scheme employs radiation pressure cooling and another scheme involves a blue-detuned standing-wave configuration. Two-wavelength laser sources, at 410nm and 451nm, were used in both methods. We will present our systematic studies on these cooling schemes.
