ColdQuanta, Optocap, and Fraunhofer CAP will develop a commercially-available complete high-flux cold atom source system with uniquely low size and cost. The high flux cold atom source is a complex and critical element of cold matter systems used in a variety of applications such as gravity surveying, atomic clocks, magnetic and electric sensors, navigation, and quantum information systems. The lack of a commercial complete source system at a moderate size and price point is a fundamental barrier to the expansion of atomic quantum technology into deployed applications. The small size and low cost of our approach turns the entire source system into a module that can be easily added to, or removed from, a more complex system in a modular manner. This simplifies research and development, aids in system integration, and eases maintenance.

ColdQuanta， Optocap和Fraunhofer CAP将开发一种具有独特的低尺寸和低成本的商用完整高通量冷原子源系统。高通量冷原子源是用于各种应用的冷物质系统的复杂和关键元素，如重力测量、原子钟、磁和电传感器、导航和量子信息系统。缺乏一个中等规模和价格的商业完整源系统是原子量子技术扩展到部署应用程序的根本障碍。我们的方法的小尺寸和低成本将整个源系统变成一个模块，可以很容易地以模块化的方式添加到或从更复杂的系统中删除。这简化了研究和开发，有助于系统集成，并简化了维护。
