Abstract

<p>In several kinds of dilute atomic gases, Bose-Einstein condensates with almost no thermal atoms have been created using laser cooling techniques. The dynamics of the condensate, which are observed directly with optical means, are well described with a condensate wave function. In this paper, we report our experimental study on phase manipulation for the condensate wave function with electromagnetic fields or laser beams. It enables new experiments on superfluidity and novel applications using matter waves. As an example, we introduce our experiment on the creation of a multiply-charged quantized vortex.</p>
