As the only stable spin-1/2 noble gas isotopes, He and Xe are promising systems for inertial rotation sensing and searches for exotic spin couplings. Spin-1/2 noble gases have intrinsic coherence times on the order of hours to days, which allows for incredibly low frequency error of free-precession measurements. However relaxation in miniature cells is dominated by interactions with the cell wall, which limits the performance of a chip-scale sensor that uses noble gases. While Xe wall relaxation times have previously been limited to 10’s of seconds in mm-sized cells, we demonstrate the first anodically bonded batch-fabricated cells with dual He-Xe isotopes and Rb in a 6~mm volume with He and Xe coherence times of, respectively, 4 h and 300 s. We use these microfabricated cells in a dual noble-gas comagnetometer and discuss its limits.
