The Design and Construction of a Rubidium Magneto-Optical Trap
A magneto-optical trap (MOT) cools atoms to microkelvin range temperatures by trapping atoms within perpendicular laser beams and varying magnetic fields [1]. A MOT uses opposing photon emission and absorption to reduce an atom’s speed, consequently reducing its temperature. By combining this with a magnetic field, the MOT works to trap an atom ... read more

Rb Optically Pumped Magnetometry
Deception can produce involuntary and measurable changes in cardiovascular response. For example, significant differences in heart rate have been found when comparing truthful and deceptive responses (Godert et al. 2001). Atomic magnetometers can achieve subfemtotesla sensitivity to magnetic fields without the cryogenic cooling required by supercon... read more

Optimization of an NV-Diamond CW-ODMR Magnetometer for Sentinel Lymph Node Detection
NV diamonds has shown great promise in the field of sensing and navigation due to their high sensitivity to small changes in magnetic fields. Its incorporation into magnetometers is favorable due to its functionality at room temperature and ability to be made into a small size. One crystal structure consists of a vacancy and the replacement of a ca... read more
