Cell design showing both cell walls and windows made of non-conducting glass. A thin layer of polysilicon deposited on the glass is used for bonding the cell closed.

Atomic Vapor Cell And Making An Atomic Vapor Cell

NIST Inventors
Christopher L. Holloway , Alexandra (Aly) Artusio-Glimpse , Vladimir Aksyuk and Matt Simons
A new method for fabricating cells at the wafer level that minimizes the amount of silicon. Instead of fabricating the frame onto which glass is bonded out of silicon, we start with a glass wafer, in which holes have been etched or abrasively machined. A thin layer of polysilicon is deposited onto
Block diagram of the Rydberg atom "mixer". The Rydberg atoms separate the difference frequency (IF) from two RF signals (LO and SIG). This demodulated signal is carried in the probe laser.

Rydberg Atom Mixer and Determining Phase of Modulated Carrier Radiation

NIST Inventors
Josh Gordon , Christopher L. Holloway and Matt Simons
A Rydberg atom mixer determines a phase of modulated carrier radiation and includes: a reference radiofrequency source for reference radiofrequency radiation; a modulated carrier source for modulated carrier radiation; a vapor cell to contain gas atoms and that receives reference radiofrequency
