We have relaunched our 3D printing service.
Please note that our 3D printing service is only available to members of Oxford University. Unfortunately, we do not have the capacity to offer printing services to external organisations, businesses or private individuals.

Who? What/Why? Usually a rough alignment is enough to get a signal from the trapped ion, and then one of the beam positions is adjusted to maximise this signal and thus fine tune the alignment. Once one of the beams has been aligned properly, all that remains is to make all the other beams hit the same spot... but how to do this? We temporarily reflect the beam outwards with mirrors (C and E) on to a CCD camera (F), and line the beams up like this. This used to be done with a hand inserted mirror, however, our latest design is much more compact, so it's hard to avoid putting fingerprints on optics - 3D printing allows us to mount a servo motor (D) to rotate the mirror in for us. Moving to a motorised system also means that we can automate it to perform daily checks on the beam positions. |
