Photonically Integrated Cold Atom Sources (Picas)
Adjustable Picas
The Adjustable Picas is a compact alignment-free beam delivery package to produce a 2D MOT atomic source when used with Infleqtion’s Cold Atom Source Cell capable of producing >109 atoms per second. It produces a 2D MOT beam configuration with three user-supplied fiber-coupled light inputs and features two sets of magnetic field coils for a switchable magnetic field. Photodiodes provide power monitoring capability for all three beam. This system is perfect for those who are looking for a near turnkey source of atomic flux into their cold or ultra-cold atom experiments.
