Abstract: I present progress towards atomic manipulation on the 6S1/2 - 5D5/2 forbidden transition in Cs. I discuss a few intriguing features of this transition, including a very high pump-depump ratio, very low Doppler temperature, and an intermediate state that allows for background free imaging. I also discuss development of the experimental apparatus and preliminary results of the experiment.
