Abstract
A magnetic field coil arrangement for a magneto-optical trap comprises a first transparent substrate having a first surface, a second transparent substrate having a second surface opposite from the first surface, one or more side walls coupled between the first and second transparent substrates, a first set of magnetic field coils on the first surface of the first transparent substrate, and a second set of magnetic field coils on the second surface of the second transparent substrate. The second set of magnetic field coils in an offset alignment with the first set of magnetic field coils. The first and second sets of magnetic field coils are configured to produce a magnetic field distribution that mimics a quadrupole magnetic field distribution in a central location between the first and second transparent substrates.
