Bringing the power of tabletop precision lasers for quantum science to the chip scale

Summary

Nutrition label

80% Informative

University of California - Santa Barbara researchers develop a chip-scale ultra-low-linewidth self-injection locked 780 nm laser.

This roughly matchbox-sized device, say the researchers, can perform better than current 780 nm lasers, for a fraction of the cost to manufacture, and the space to hold them.

This will impact technology spaces such as quantum computing with neutral atoms and trapped ions.

The compactness, low-power consumption and light weight is a "perfect fit" for technology to be deployed in space.

The success of this technology means that it will be possible to deploy these high-performance, precision, low cost photonics integrated lasers in a variety of situations in and out of the lab.
