Verification and experimental validation of neutral atom beam source produced by L-PBF
Vineet Kumar, Niklas V. Lausti, Peter Kúš +7
We report validation tests of a calcium atomic-beam source fabricated via Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF). The surface quality and elemental composition of the printed component we…
3D-printed components for electron-ion trapping: Pre-experimental tests of functionality and ultra-high vacuum compatibility
Vineet Kumar, Niklas V. Lausti, JiÅà HajnyÅ¡ +4
We demonstrate the ultra-high vacuum compatibility of a microwave-driven electron trap and an atomic oven (for atomic beam generation) fabricated through 3D printing via Laser Powd…
Roadmap to planar electron-ion point Paul trap
Niklas Vilhelm Lausti, Vineet Kumar, Ivan Hudák +2
We present a technical guide to developing a quantum-mechanical system with co-trapped laser-cooled ions and electrons, aiming to utilize this mixed-species system in quantum compu…
Trapping of electrons and ions in a dual-frequency Paul trap
Vladimir Mikhailovskii, Natalija Sheth, Guofeng Qu +12
We demonstrate the operation of a dual-frequency Paul trap and characterize its performance by storing either electrons or calcium ions while applying two quadrupole fields simulta…
