Microwave synthesis and analysis platforms
Presto and Vivace, a breakthrough for quantum technology
  • 10 GHz direct digital synthesis, no analog IQ mixers
  • 16 or 8 RF in- and outputs in a single device
  • Controlled using Python API
  • Multiple modes of operation:
    • Time domain pulse sequencing and feedback
    • Continuous wave
    • 192 frequency lock-in
Multifrequency Lockin Amplifier
MLA-3
  • 80 MHz analog bandwidth
  • 4 input and 2 output ports
  • Powerful graphical software and Python API
  • Multiple modes of operation:
    • 32 frequency lock-in
    • Coherent signal synthesis and sampling
    • Oscilloscope
    • Arb. waveform generator
  • I've been using Presto extensively and we've been making quite a lot of progress thanks to it. In particular, we use it for time domain measurements and I couldn't be happier with the support I got from IMP.

  • The user support is amazing. At one point, we realized that our use cases required extreme precision in the timing of pulses arriving to the quantum chip. We reached out to IMP support, within an hour we concluded on a solution, within a day they updated their API allowing us to time pulses down to 100 ps and within a week we had integrated the functionality, calibrated our system and produced (to our knowledge) the highest quality cubic phase state ever produced on any quantum platform.

  • IMP replied to our issue rapidly and professionally. I am amazed at their after-sales service and I wish their business all the best.

  • IM-AFM is to me the most exciting hardware+software development in AFM in >20 years. The quality of the science behind a commercial product, as witnessed by the many rigorous journal publications, is unprecedented in the history of AFM. On top of it all is the quick and personable support I have received from Intermodulation Products AB; it makes me doubly excited about applying IMAFM to a whole host of research problems, for years to come. Definitely postpones thoughts of early retirement!

  • With amazing customer service, I have designed several non-standard dynamic AFM experiments thanks to MLA. I would definitely continue to use their services and recommend them to others in future.

  • Thanks to Intermodulation AFM, we were able in our lab to easily get valuable and quantitative information about the nanomechanical properties of soft and nanocomposites materials coming from academic collaborations but also from industrial partners.

  • Vivace and the MLA are designed with programming at their center. This makes creating an adaptable measuring procedure incredibly easy. On top of that, IMP is quick to respond to any questions and they are continuously adding new features. Their products have been a great addition to our labs.
