We demonstrate a robust method for the efficient optically levitated loading of ultracold Cs atoms in a crossed dipole trap. When preparing a large number of atomic samples, a largevolume crossed dipole trap is required to form a shallow but very efficient loading potential. The scattering force coming from a red near-off-resonance laser is utilized to precisely compensate for the destructive gravitational force of the atoms, making it a promising method for loading and trapping ∼5.1 × 10 ⁶ atoms in a pure optical trap. The optimum levitation laser intensity is ∼177 W cm ^-2 with a detuning of -25.0 GHz. The dependence of the variation in the number of atoms loaded and trapped in the optically levitated dipole trap on the intensity and detuning of the levitated laser is in good agreement with theoretical predictions.
