Quartz Circular Polarising Optical Window at 80°C for MEMS Vapour Cells

Year: 2024

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: We present the development of on-cell polarisers for use at operating temperature of MEMS vapour cells by accounting for waveplate thickness and birefringence temperature dependence. Implementing on-cell, the SWaP-C of the miniature-atom-interrogation systems reduces. This design-fabrication process is adaptable to other temperatures, wavelengths, and polarisations.
