A low phase noise microwave source for atomic spin squeezing experiments in 87Rb
A low phase noise microwave source for atomic spin squeezing experiments in 87Rb
We describe and characterize a simple, low cost, low phase noise microwave source that operates near 6.800 GHz for agile, coherent manipulation of ensembles of 87Rb. Low phase noise is achieved by directly multiplying a low phase noise 100 MHz crystal to 6.8 GHz using a non-linear transmission line and …
