Multi-channel Opto-mechanical Switch and Locking System for Wavemeters
Moji Ghadimi, Elizabeth M. Bridge, Jordan Scarabel +4
Here we present a cost effective multi-channel opto-mechanical switch and software PID system for locking multiple lasers to a single channel commercial wavemeter. The switch is ba…
Ultrafast, high repetition rate, ultraviolet, fiber based laser source: application towards Yb+ fast quantum-logic
Mahmood Irtiza Hussain, Matthew Joseph Petrasiunas, Christopher D. B. Bentley +6
Trapped ions are one of the most promising approaches for the realization of a universal quantum computer. Faster quantum logic gates could dramatically improve the performance of…
Frequency conversion between UV and telecom wavelengths in a lithium niobate waveguide for quantum communication with Yb+ trapped ions
Sachin Kasture, Francesco Lenzini, Ben Haylock +4
We study and demonstrate the frequency conversion of UV radiation, resonant with 369.5 nm transition in Yb+ ions to the C-band wavelength 1580.3 nm and vice-versa using a reverse p…
Frequency stabilization of an ultraviolet laser to ions in a discharge
E. W. Streed, T. J. Weinhold, D. Kielpinski
We stabilize an ultraviolet diode laser system at 369.5 nm to the optical absorption signal from Yb+ ions in a hollow-cathode discharge lamp. The error signal for stabilization is…
Measurement of focusing properties for high numerical aperture optics using an automated submicron beamprofiler
J. J. Chapman, B. G. Norton, E. W. Streed +1
The focusing properties of three aspheric lenses with numerical aperture (NA) between 0.53 and 0.68 were directly measured using an interferometrically referenced scanning knife-ed…
