dc.description.abstractStrongly interacting many-body systems are of great interest in many areas of physics. Ultracold atoms in optical lattices are a powerful tool for creating and studying such systems. In this thesis, the construction and characterization of an 3D optical lattice for a ultra-cold Strontium apparatus is described. A 1064nm fiber amplified laser system is used to create three orthogonal pairs of standing waves that together form the 3D lattice. By delivering 4W of power to each arm of the lattice and focusing the beams to a beam radius of about 250 microns at the location of the atoms, we can create a 3D lattice with a maximum trap depth around 70 photon recoils.en_US
