Abstract: In a general aspect, a vapor cell includes a body defined by a stack of layers bonded to each other. The stack of layers includes a first end layer disposed at a first end of the body and a second end layer disposed at a second, opposite end of the body. Intermediate layers extend between the first and second end layers and define an internal cavity extending through the body between the first end layer and the second end layer. The stack of layers also includes first and second sets of tabs. The first set of tabs extends outward from the intermediate layers on a first exterior side of the body, and the second set of tabs extends outward from the intermediate layers on a second exterior side of the body. The vapor cell also includes a vapor or a source of the vapor disposed in the internal cavity.

Abstract: In a general aspect, a vapor cell includes a body defined by a stack of layers bonded to each other. The stack of layers defines an array of cavities that includes first and second subsets of cavities. The first subset of cavities extends through intermediate layers of the stack of layers and the second subset of cavities extends entirely through the stack of layers. The vapor cell includes a vapor or a source of the vapor disposed in each of the first subset of cavities. The stack of layers includes a first end layer disposed at a first end of the body and a second end layer disposed at a second, opposite end of the body. The intermediate layers are positioned between the first and second end layers.

Abstract: In a general aspect, a receiver is disclosed for sensing radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic radiation. The receiver includes a dielectric body having an array of cavities ordered periodically to define a photonic crystal structure in the dielectric body. The dielectric body also has a region in the array of cavities that defines a defect in the photonic crystal structure. An elongated slot through the region extends from a slot opening in a surface of the dielectric body at least partially through the dielectric body. The receiver also includes a vapor or a source of the vapor in the elongated slot as well as an optical window covering the elongated slot. The optical window has a window surface bonded to the surface of the dielectric body to form a seal about the slot opening.

Abstract: In a general aspect, vapor cells are disclosed that include a dielectric body having a first surface and a second surface. The dielectric body includes a plurality of cavities extending from the first surface to the second surface and ordered periodically to define a photonic crystal structure in the dielectric body. Each cavity has a first opening defined by the first surface and a second opening defined by the second surface. The photonic crystal structure has a photonic band gap. The vapor cells additionally include a first optical window covering the first openings and having a surface bonded to the first surface of the dielectric body to form a seal around each of the first openings. A second optical window covers the second openings and has a surface bonded to the second surface of the dielectric body to form a seal around each of the second openings.
