Abstract: Lifetimes of a fraction of a second are reported for hyperfine coherences of optically trapped rubidium-87 atoms. Decoherence due to differential ac-Stark shift arising from trapping potentials is suppressed using laser-induced two-photon and “magic” magnetic field techniques. These results have implications for quantum information science and precision measurements.
