Improved surface quality of anisotropically etched silicon {111} planes for mm-scale integrated optics
J. P. Cotter, I. Zeimpekis, M Kraft +1
We have studied the surface quality of millimeter-scale optical mirrors produced by etching CZ and FZ silicon wafers in potassium hydroxide to expose the planes. We find…
ICP polishing of silicon for high quality optical resonators on a chip
A. Laliotis, M. Trupke, J. P. Cotter +3
Miniature concave hollows, made by wet etching silicon through a circular mask, can be used as mirror substrates for building optical micro-cavities on a chip. In this paper we inv…
Atom chip for BEC interferometry
R. J. Sewell, J. Dingjan, F. Baumgartner +8
We have fabricated and tested an atom chip that operates as a matter wave interferometer. In this communication we describe the fabrication of the chip by ion-beam milling of gold…
Fabrication of Magneto-Optical Atom Traps on a Chip
G. Lewis, Z. Moktadir, C. Gollasch +7
Ultra-cold atoms can be manipulated using microfabricated devices known as atom chips. These have significant potential for applications in sensing, metrology and quantum informati…
The effect of self-affine fractal roughness of wires on atom chips
Z. Moktadir, B. Darquié, M. Kraft +1
Atom chips use current flowing in lithographically patterned wires to produce microscopic magnetic traps for atoms. The density distribution of a trapped cold atom cloud reveals di…
Pyramidal micro-mirrors for microsystems and atom chips
M. Trupke, F. Ramirez-Martinez, E. A. Curtis +8
Concave pyramids are created in the (100) surface of a silicon wafer by anisotropic etching in potassium hydroxide. High quality micro-mirrors are then formed by sputtering gold on…
