Single-beam Zeeman slower and magneto-optical trap using a nanofabricated grating
D. S. Barker, E. B. Norrgard, N. N. Klimov +3
We demonstrate a compact (0.25 L) system for laser cooling and trapping atoms from a heated dispenser source. Our system uses a nanofabricated diffraction grating to generate a mag…
Challenges to miniaturizing cold atom technology for deployable vacuum metrology
Stephen Eckel, Daniel S. Barker, James A. Fedchak +3
Cold atoms are excellent metrological tools; they currently realize SI time and, soon, SI pressure in the ultra-high (UHV) and extreme high vacuum (XHV) regimes. The development of…
Light-induced atomic desorption of lithium
D. S. Barker, E. B. Norrgard, J. Scherschligt +2
We demonstrate loading of a Li magneto-optical trap using light-induced atomic desorption. The magneto-optical trap confines up to approximately ato…
Development of a new UHV/XHV pressure standard (cold atom vacuum standard)
Julia Scherschligt, James A Fedchak, Daniel S Barker +4
The National Institute of Standards and Technology has recently begun a program to develop a primary pressure standard that is based on ultra-cold atoms, covering a pressure range…
