Mount your Optics Directly on the Cryostat
application example: ultimate flexibility combined with exceptional stability
CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
Dr. Pascale Senellart
We wanted to modify our cryogenic in-situ
lithography setup to a dry cryogenic technology.
This setup is our most demanding one, requiring
sophisticated multicolor optical alignment and
long term stability. attocube‘s new breadbord
add-on to the attoDRY1000 offers great flexibility
to our measurements: it provides enough space
for three different excitation lines, a camera
visualization, and still we can easily add additio-
nal optical components like polarization control,
etc. Everything worked perfectly well right after
installation and we could immediately start
again our most demanding resonant fluorescence
measurements. The optical stability is even better
than before!
One of the most impressive examples of how attocube’s breadboard add-on for
the toploading dry cryostats can help to conduct quite influential science has
been set up by the French group around Dr. Pascale Senellart at the Laboratory
for Photonics and Nanostructures at CNRS. The group has pioneered a technique
called in-situ optical lithography at low temperatures which consists of three
independent optical channels for confocal microscopy mounted on the bread-
board on top of the cryostat. For more information on this application, please
also see page 186.
This application demonstrates the unique flexibility as well as the proven stability of
the breadboard add-on, see also the testimonial by Dr. Senellart.
