Atomic Trapping and Cooling

Laser cooling and trapping is the cooling down of atoms and confining and supporting them in “atom traps”.

Beryllium ion trapping

Trapped ions, especially 9Be+ ions, can be used for quantum computers and optical clocks.

Dipole trapping

Dipole trapping is fundamental when working with ultra-cold atoms and molecules for, e.g., optical clocks and quantum computers.

Rubidium cooling

Are you looking for a laser for rubidium cooling for applications such as gravimeters, quantum computers, or inertial sensors?

Single-photon generation

Single photons can be used as information carriers in, e.g., quantum key distribution schemes or as qubits in quantum computers.

Squeezed light

Ultra-low phase noise and high output power are critical factors for squeezed light applications.
