Annual report dates come from the budget period on your award notice. That date is not public, so it is not shown here.
How we got this date
- NSF lists this award's end date as 30 September 2028.
- NSF rules say the final report is due no later than 120 days after that.
- So the final report is due by 28 January 2029.

Abstract
Cold atom technologies lie at the heart of the emerging quantum revolution, enabling applications in sensing, navigation, timing, and fundamental physics. However, the conventional setups used to trap and cool atoms, known as magneto-optical traps (MOTs), are bulky, power-hungry, and require complex optical alignments, limiting their use to laboratory environments. The proposed research aims to miniaturize MOTs by…
