Experimental Study of the Laser Diode Pumped Rubidium Maser
Alain Michaud, Pierre Tremblay, Michel Tetu
We report the operation of a Rb maser in the self-oscillating mode, using a laser diode as the optical pumping source. The maser uses a TE cavity surrounding a cell…
Realization of a Laser Cooled Microwave Power Standard (conference digest)
David C. Paulusse, Nelson L. Rowell, Alain Michaud
We demonstrate the feasibility of a novel microwave power standard based on the electromagnetic interaction with cold atoms. Under the effect of the radiation, the internal state p…
Accuracy of an Atomic Microwave Power Standard (Conference digest)
David C. Paulusse, Nelson L. Rowell, Alain Michaud
We have studied the accuracy of the atomic microwave power standard. The atoms are cooled and kept in a Magneto-Optical Trap (MOT), then dropped through a terminated transmission l…
Microwave Power Standard using Cold Atoms
David C. Paulusse, Nelson L. Rowell, Alain Michaud
We discuss how the observation of Rabi flopping oscillations in a laser cooled atomic sample could be used as a microwave power standard. The rubidium atoms are first trapped in a…
