Utility
Continuous Quantum Sensor
20 May 20
Atom-scale particles, e.g., neutral and charged atoms and molecules, are pre-cooled, e.g., using magneto-optical traps (MOTs), to below 100 μK to yield cold particles.

Utility
Quantum Tunneling Matter-wave Transistor System
20 May 20
The present invention provides an matter-wave transistor in which the flow of particles (e.g., atoms and molecules) through the transistor is a result of resonant tunneling from a source well, through a gate well and into a drain well (as opposed to being a result of collisions, as in a classical atomtronic transistor).
