Abstract

We describe the design of a single beam, multiple species atom source in which the flux of anycomponent can be separately adjusted. Using this design we have developed a 23Na–6Li atom sourcefor ultracold atom experiments. The fluxes of lithium and sodium are independently tunable,allowing operation as a single 23Na or 6Li source as well as a double source with equal atomic fluxesin each component.
