- Description
- RFQ # NB688000-16-04720 for 4 Fiber-Coupled Acouto-Optic Modulators The National Institute of Standards and Technology's Atomic Standard Group has been working for several years with the United States Air Force (USAF) to develop a cold atom atomic clock for use on a future generation of Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites. We have built and tested two generations of laboratory prototypes and are currently designing a third generation clock for testing aboard the USAF’s zero-g test aircraft. These tests are scheduled for the summer of 2016. The third generation design is also intended to move closer to a final design for an actual clock for launch into earth orbit. NIST requires 4 fiber-coupled acousto-optic modulators (AOMs) to be used for modulation of the laser source for atom cooling, trapping, and detection.
