Grating chips for quantum technologies
Abstract We have laser cooled 3 × 106 87Rb atoms to 3 μK in a micro-fabricated grating magneto-optical trap (GMOT), enabling future mass-deployment in highly accurate compact quantum sensors. We magnetically trap the atoms, and use Larmor spin precession for magnetic sensing in the vicinity of the a...
