OPTAMOT: Optimised Designs for Additively Manufactured Magento Optical Traps

研究团队将进行迭代设计活动，将我们的磁光阱（MOT）设计和优化经验与苏塞克斯大学和诺丁汉大学量子技术（QT）小组的设计和优化经验以及增材制造研究领先组织Added Scientific Ltd （ASL）的增材制造设计（DfAM）能力相结合。为支持上述具体研究活动，将开展以下活动：- Orucevic博士和Kruger教授将负责MOT主要结构和辅助结构的设计、测试和实施；-探索不同的MOT操作模式（如2D MOT、2D+ MOT、金字塔MOT等）；-将测试MOTs与其他设备（例如原子芯片和印刷电路板）的系统集成；原型车会被单独研究，也会作为大型冷原子实验装置的一部分进行研究。

The research team will undertake an iterative design activity, combining our Magneto Optical Trap (MOT) design and optimization experience with that of the Quantum Technology (QT) groups at the Universities of Sussex and Nottingham and with the Design for Additive Manufacture (DfAM) capabilities at Added Scientific Ltd (ASL), a leading organisation in Additive Manufacturing Research.In support of the above the following specific research activities will be undertaken:- Dr. Orucevic and Prof. Kruger will undertake the design, testing and implementation of main MOT structures and auxiliary structures;- Different operational schemes of MOT will be explored and characterised (e.g., 2D MOT, 2D+ MOT, pyramidal MOT, etc.);- The system integration of MOTs with other devices, for example atom chips and printed circuit boards (PCB), will be tested;- Prototypes will be investigated both separately and as a part of larger experimental cold-atom setup.
