Compact MOT system for research and education<\/h3>\n

The miniMOT V2 by Infleqtion<\/strong> is a compact, pre-configured ultra-high vacuum system for the generation and control of cold atom clouds. It enables the setup of a magneto-optical trap (MOT)<\/strong> with rubidium or cesium, without first having to build a complex vacuum system from individual components.<\/p>\n

The system is already delivered under vacuum and integrates essential vacuum, control, and magnet components into a compact platform. As a result, a functional MOT can be realized within a few hours instead of a typically much longer setup process.<\/p>\n

Integrated ultra-high vacuum system<\/h3>\n

Active and passive pumps ensure a long-term stable vacuum environment. Without Rb\/Cs load, Infleqtion gives a typical pressure of <10 nTorr<\/strong> an.<\/p>\n

The integrated electronics control the vacuum system, the alkali atom pressure, and the miniMOT coils. The essential operating parameters can be directly adjusted and monitored via the integrated touch display.<\/p>\n

For rubidium and cesium<\/h3>\n

The miniMOT V2 is for experiments with Rubidium (Rb) or Cesium (Cs)<\/strong> designed. The atomic source is directly integrated into the system.<\/p>\n

Together with the miniMOT coils, the anti-Helmholtz magnetic field required for the magneto-optical trap is generated. Infleqtion specifies a typical field gradient for the coils of 13\u201314 G\/(A\u00b7cm)<\/strong> along the coil axis.<\/p>\n

Different UHV glass cells<\/h3>\n

The miniMOT V2 can be configured with different Infleqtion glass cells. In addition to a thin-walled standard cell, there are AR-coated cells and high-NA imaging cells<\/strong> available.<\/p>\n

This allows the optical access to be adapted to the requirements of the respective experiment\u2014for example, for laser cooling, fluorescence imaging, or more demanding optical investigations of the trapped atoms. Customer-specific UHV glass cells are also possible.<\/p>\n

miniMOT package for extra-fast setup<\/h3>\n

Optionally, the miniMOT V2 can be used as miniMOT Package<\/strong> be deployed with pre-configured optics. The package includes a compact breadboard platform with optics for beam splitting and polarization, mirrors for MOT alignment, and a camera for observing the atom cloud.<\/p>\n

The optical unit is delivered pre-aligned, thereby enabling a particularly quick setup of a complete magneto-optical trap. The laser input takes place via FC\/APC fiber optic connector<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
