Extended Data Fig. 2: Comparison of the rf spectra in the continuous-wave dipole trap and in the intensity-modulated dipole trap.

a, b, The rf spectra measured in the continuous-wave dipole trap. We use two overlapping Gaussian functions to fit the data (red solid line), where the Gaussian function for the atomic loss feature is centred at the atomic transition. Each point represents the average of 6–10 measurements and error bars represent the standard error of the mean. As a comparison, the rf spectra measured in the intensity-modulated optical dipole trap are shown in c and d. It can be seen that the association feature is better resolved in the modulated dipole trap.
