Simplified diagrams of the optical setups. (A) The split-path setup splits the laser light into two orthogonally polarized beams to steer independently one trap (FM, fixed mirror; PBS, polarizing beamsplitter; SM, steerable mirror). (B) Time-sharing the traps with an AOD eliminates the need for the split paths.
