Recent Nobel Prizes in Atomic Physics
Nobel Prize in Physics 1997: Steven Chu, Claude Cohen-Tannoudji and William D. Phillips "for development of methods to cool and trap atoms with laser light". Nobel Prize in Physics 2001: Eric A. Cornell, Wolfgang Ketterle and Carl E. Wieman "for the achievement of Bose-Einstein condensation in dilute gases of alkali atoms, and for early fundamental studies of the properties of the condensates". Nobel Prize in Physics 2005: Roy J. Glauber "for his contribution to the quantum theory of optical coherence", and John L. Hall and Theodor W. Hansch "for their contributions to the development of laser-based precision spectroscopy, including the optical frequency comb technique". Nobel Prize in Physics 2012: Serge Haroche and David J. Wineland "for ground-breaking experimental methods that enable measuring and manipulation of individual quantum systems" Nobel Prize in Physics 2018: Arther Ashkin "for the optical tweezers and their application to biological systems" Nobel Prize in Physics 2018: Gerard Mourou and Donna Strickland "for their method of generating high-intensity, ultra-short optical pulses"
