The ability of single-atom resolved detection in optical lattice experiments had huge impact on the study of strongly correlated bosonic quantum gases. In our experiment we have recently achieved the same technique for fermionic Lithium-6 with high fidelity. We employ a far detuned optical lattice to freeze the atomic distribution while performing Raman sideband cooling and simultaneously acquiring fluorescence light for single-atom imaging. I will present our results in realising low-entropy Fermi gases and probing the fermionic character of our system with a site-resolved statistical study.
