| 145 | Ultra-Cold-Matter System with Thermally-Isolated Nested Source Cell | US14594111 | 2015-01-10 | US20150200029A1 | 2015-07-16 | Steven Michael Hughes; Janet Duggan; Dana Z. Anderson |
| In a disclosed embodiment, an ultra-cold-matter (UCM) system includes a source cell nested within a hermetically-sealed ultra-high-vacuum (UHV) enclosure.
