    "abstract": "We study the laser cooling of one atom in an harmonic trap beyond the\nLamb-Dicke regime. By using sequences of laser pulses of different detunings we\nshow that the atom can be confined into just one state of the trap, either the\nground state or an excited state of the harmonic potential. The last can be\nachieved because under certain conditions an excited state becomes a dark\nstate. We study the problem in one and two dimensions. For the latter case a\nnew cooling mechanism is possible, based on the destructive interference\nbetween the effects of laser fields in different directions, which allows the\ncreation of variety of dark states. For both, one and two dimensional cases,\nMonte Carlo simulations of the cooling dynamics are presented.",
