Abstract
The use of computer designed holograms to generate light fields which could be used as atomic resonators is demonstrated. Metastable neon atoms were confined in a holographically generated transverse electromagnetic wave (TEM) doughnut mode. An ultracold neon atomic beam was axially overlapped with a blue detuned TEM mode with a typical power of 1 W and a waist of 100 μm. High efficiency was achieved with a blazed phase-hologram laser written on a quartz substrate. A reduction of the beam divergence was achieved by guiding the atoms in the dark region of the doughnut mode.
