  • Publication number: 20240112058
    Abstract: A shaken-lattice station and a cloud-based server cooperate to provide shaken lattices as a service (SLaaS). The shaken-lattice station serves as a system for implementing “recipes” for creating and using shaking functions to be applied to light used to trap quantum particles. The cloud-based server acts as an interface between the shaken-lattice station (or stations) and authorized users of account holders. To this end the server hosts an account manager and a session manager. The account manager manages accounts and associated account-based and user-specific permissions that define what actions any given authorized user for an account may perform with respect to a shaken-lattice station. The session manager controls (e.g., in real-time) interactions between a user and a shaken-lattice station, some interactions allowing a user to select a recipe based on results returned earlier in the same session.

  • Patent number: 11935053
    Abstract: A BEC-station and a cloud-based server cooperate to provide Bose-Einstein condensates as a service (BECaaS). The BEC station serves as a system for implementing “recipes” for producing, manipulating, and/or using cold (<1 mK) a BEC, e.g., of cold Rubidium 87 atoms. The cloud-based server acts as an interface between the station (or stations) and authorized users of account holders. To this end the server hosts an account manager and a session manager. The account manager manages accounts and associated account-based and user-specific permissions that define what actions any given authorized user for an account may perform with respect to a BEC station. The session manager controls (in some cases real-time) interactions between a user and a BEC station, some interactions allowing a user to select a recipe based on results returned earlier in the same session.

  • Patent number: 11922416
    Abstract: An atomtronics station and a cloud-based server cooperate to provide Bose-Einstein condensates as a service (ATaaS). The atomtronics station serves as a system for implementing “recipes” for producing, manipulating, and/or using atomtronic devices based on cold atoms that are, in some respects, analogous to classical electronic devices based on electricity. The cloud-based server acts as an interface between the station (or stations) and authorized users of account holders. To this end the server hosts an account manager and a session manager. The account manager manages accounts and associated account-based and user-specific permissions that define what actions any given authorized user for an account may perform with respect to an atomtronics station. The session manager controls (in some cases, real-time) interactions between a user and an atomtronics station, some interactions allowing a user to select a recipe based on results returned earlier in the same session.

  • Publication number: 20230409939
    Abstract: A quantum-mechanics station (?-station) and a cloud-based server cooperate to provide quantum mechanics as a service (?aaS) including real-time, exclusive, interactive sessions. The ?-station serves as a system for implementing “recipes” for producing, manipulating, and/or using quantum-state carriers, e.g., rubidium 87 atoms. The cloud-based server acts as an interface between the station (or stations) and authorized users of account holders. To this end, the server hosts an account manager and a session manager. The account manager manages accounts and associated account-based and user-specific permissions that define what actions any given authorized user for an account may perform with respect to a ?-station. The session manager controls (e.g., in real-time) interactions between a user and a ?-station, some interactions allowing a user to select a recipe based on wavefunction characterizations returned earlier in the same session.

  • Patent number: 11843420
    Abstract: A radio-frequency receiver achieves high sensitivity by pumping atoms to high-azimuthal (?3) Rydberg states. A vapor cell contains quantum particles (e.g., cesium atoms). A laser system provides probe, dressing, and coupling beams to pump the quantum particles to a first Rydberg state having a high-azimuthal quantum number ?3. A local oscillator drives an electric field in the vapor cell at a local oscillator frequency, which is imposed on a distribution of quantum particles between the first Rydberg state and a second Rydberg state. An incident RF signal field interferes with the local oscillator field, imposing an oscillation in the distribution at a beat or difference frequency and, consequently, on the intensity of the probe beam. The beat frequency component of the intensity of the probe beam is detected, and the detection signal is demodulated to extract information originally in the RF signal.

  • Publication number: 20230296380
    Abstract: An assembly includes one or more high temperature vapor cells positioned along an axis of the assembly, a vacuum envelope encasing the one or more high temperature vapor cells, and one or more sets of low thermal conductivity mounting structures coupled to the vacuum envelope. Each set of low thermal conductivity mounting structures is configured to position a corresponding one of the high temperature vapor cells within the vacuum envelope.

  • Publication number: 20230049199
    Abstract: The disclosure describes vacuum cell assemblies that integrate a vacuum envelope with a photonic integrated circuit (PIC). Walls of the vacuum envelope are coupled to the PIC, such as through anodic bonding, so that the PIC forms at least one wall of the vacuum envelope and provides an optically accessible medium and surface for transmitting and distributing light into various cavities of the vacuum envelope through one or more nonplanar waveguides. A surface of the PIC may include a material that is compatible with a material of the walls of the vacuum envelope, such as a silicon-based vacuum envelope bonded to a silicon nitride or amorphous silicon surface of the PIC. Each waveguide may include a bridge structure that forms a planar surface for tightly bonding with the vacuum envelope and preserves properties of the transmitted light between opposing sections of the waveguide.

  • Patent number: 11549811
    Abstract: An embodiment of an integrated atom chip used for measuring atoms is discussed. One or more magnetic traps integrated with an optical waveguide that is imprinted onto the integrated atom chip facilitate loading of the atoms into an evanescent field optical trap of the optical waveguide in order to measure the atoms. The two or more stages of cooling are used to progressively cool the atoms from an initial temperature down to a final temperature of the atoms when mode matched and loaded into the evanescent field optical trap of the optical waveguide.
