Shanghai Optics embarked on a groundbreaking project in collaboration with a university’s Applied Physics department, tasked with crafting a specialized objective lens catering to the intricate demands of trapping and imaging single atoms. Leveraging our team’s profound expertise and cutting-edge technology, we embarked on a journey to develop a system capable of trapping and imaging atoms with unparalleled precision.

 

Manufacturing Specifications

The objective lens we devised boasts an array of specifications meticulously tailored to the nuances of atom manipulation:

  • Wavelength Range: 780 nm – 1064 nm
  • Working Distance: 15mm (air: 5mm,vacuum: 4mm)
  • Numerical Aperture (NA): 0.5
  • Focal Length: 10mm
  • Dimensions: Φ38mm x 80mm
  • Conjugate Distance: Infinity
