A magneto-optical trap chamber includes a first waveplate; a second waveplate; a first mirror positioned between the first waveplate and the second waveplate; a prism extending from the first mirror and positioned between the first waveplate and the second waveplate; and a second mirror positioned under the first waveplate, the second waveplate, the first mirror, and the prism. The second mirror may include a direct bonded copper (DBC) chip. The first waveplate and the second waveplate may be parallel to each other. The first mirror may be orthogonal to each of the first waveplate and the second waveplate. The prism may have a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is connected to the first mirror, and the second end is connected to the second mirror. The prism may extend from the first mirror to the second mirror at an acute angle.
