A magneto-optical trap with millimeter ball lenses
Cainan S. Nichols, Leo M. Nofs, Michael A. Viray +3
We present a magneto-optical trap (MOT) design based on millimeter ball lenses, contained within a metal cube of 0.75 side length. We present evidence of trapping…
DC Electric Fields in Electrode-Free Glass Vapor Cell by Photoillumination
L. Ma, G. Raithel, E. Paradis
Rydberg-atom-enabled atomic vapor cell technologies show great potentials in developing devices for quantum enhanced sensors. In this paper, we demonstrate laser induced DC electri…
A hybrid polarization-selective atomic sensor for radio-frequency field detection with a passive resonant-cavity field amplifier
David A. Anderson, Eric G. Paradis, Georg Raithel
We present a hybrid atomic sensor that realizes radio-frequency electric field detection with intrinsic field amplification and polarization selectivity for robust high-sensitivity…
High-resolution antenna near-field imaging and sub-THz measurements with a small atomic vapor-cell sensing element
David A. Anderson, Eric Paradis, Georg Raithel +2
Atomic sensing and measurement of millimeter-wave (mmW) and THz electric fields using quantum-optical EIT spectroscopy of Rydberg states in atomic vapors has garnered significant i…
