The general properties of light-induced forces arising in dissipative light masks are considered. The localization sites of atoms depending on detuning and ellipticity are determined for an arbitrary configuration of monochromatic light beams resonant with two types of transitions: J J , where J is a half-integer, and J J + 1, where J is arbitrary.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
