In our "3D Lab", we are making use of the emerging capabilities of so-called additive manufacturing (AM or '3D-printing') to develop a reliable and efficient quantum resource. This manufacturing technique offers unrivaled freedom in the design of components, and provides a marked improvement in terms of efficiency and the potential for systems integration. This project is a cross-discipline collaboration between academic physicists, engineering and a commercial AM company, aimed at re-imagining or replacing many of the common elements seen in such quantum sensors.
