[0095] The alkali metal atoms are allowed to enter the two-dimensional grating magneto-optical trap system 2. Specifically, the alkali metal dispenser is first opened to allow the alkali metal atoms to enter the two-dimensional grating magneto-optical trap system 2. Then, the cooling light and the re-pumped photosynthetic beam are irradiated onto the two-dimensional diffraction grating chip to form a two-dimensional magneto-optical trap. The alkali metal atoms are captured in the two-dimensional grating magneto-optical trap system 2 to form cold atomic clusters.
[0096] The cold atomic clusters are pushed by the push laser 5 through the differential tube 3 into the three-dimensional grating magneto-optical trap system 6, and the cold atomic clusters are loaded into the three-dimensional grating magneto-optical trap system 6.
[0097] In the embodiment of the present application, the method of measuring the number of atoms of alkali metal atom groups in the three-dimensional grating magneto-optical trap system 6, the collision loss rate of alkali metal atoms and background gas, and the potential well depth of the three-dimensional grating magneto-optical trap system 6 includes:
[0098] The detection light is transmitted through the second vacuum chamber of the three-dimensional grating magneto-optical trap system 6 and hits the alkali metal atom group. The other end is received by a charge coupled device for imaging. The number of atoms in the alkali metal atom group is measured based on the absorption imaging principle.
[0099] By using a photomultiplier tube, the fluorescence intensity of the alkali metal atom group is measured to be reduced to a fluorescence signal curve of 0V, the number of atoms of the alkali metal atom group at an initial moment and another moment is obtained by using an absorption imaging method, and based on the number of atoms of the alkali metal atom group at the initial moment and another moment, the collision loss rate of the alkali metal atom with the background gas is determined;
[0100] The escape probability of alkali metal atoms under catalytic laser induction is taken as a function of frequency detuning, and the potential well depth is measured based on the function of frequency detuning.
[0101] The principle of measuring the collision loss rate of alkali metal atoms with background gas is as follows.
[0102] There are elastic collisions between background gas molecules and alkali metal atoms and inelastic collisions between alkali metal atoms in the three-dimensional grating magnetic optical trap system, which gradually reduce the fluorescence intensity of the cold atomic group. The fluorescence signal received by the photomultiplier tube is displayed on the oscilloscope as a curve that gradually decreases to 0V; the mathematical model of this process is the following formula (1)
[0103]
[0104] In the formula, is the rate of change of the number of trapped cold atoms over time; N is the number of cold atoms trapped in the magneto-optical trap, R is the loading rate of alkali metal atoms, Γ1 is the collision loss rate of alkali metal atoms and background gas, and N(t) is the number of trapped cold atoms at time t; the last term represents the two-body inelastic collision loss between cold atoms, β is the two-body collision loss rate, is the average density of trapped atoms.
[0105] The average density of trapped atoms is determined based on the following formula (2):
[0106]
[0107] Where n(r,t) is the density distribution of trapped atoms at time t and spatial position r, and N is the number of cold atoms trapped in the magneto-optical trap.
[0108] The density of cold atoms in the experiment was controlled at 10 10 cm –3 When , the cold atom cluster presents a Gaussian density distribution, that is, the following formula (3)
[0109]
[0110] Where n0(t) is the peak density and ω is the Gaussian radius, so the following formula (4) can be obtained:
[0111]
[0112] Based on the above formula 4, the total number of atoms N(t) corresponding to time t can be obtained by integrating the atomic density, that is, the following formula (5):
[0113]
[0114] Therefore, the above formula (1) can be simplified to the following formula (6)
[0115]
[0116] Where α is determined by the following formula (7):
[0117]
[0118] When the loss of cold atoms in the MOT reaches equilibrium with the loading, the 2D MOT laser and the push laser are turned off to stop loading. At this time, the loss process of cold atoms can be expressed by the following differential equation (8):
[0119]
[0120] Assuming that the number of atoms at the initial time t = 0 is N0, the solution of equation (1) is as follows:
[0121]
[0122] The fluorescence signal curve received by the photomultiplier tube is extracted, and the absorption imaging method is used to obtain the fluorescence signal at t = 0 and another time t a Substituting the required number of atoms into formula (9) can obtain the collision loss rate Γ1.
[0123] Based on the number of atoms of the alkali metal atom group at the initial time and another time, the collision loss rate of the alkali metal atom and the background gas is determined; specifically,
[0124] Based on the following formula (9) and formula (7), the collision loss rate of alkali metal atoms with the background gas is determined:
[0125]
[0126] In the formula, N0 is the number of atoms of the alkali metal atomic group at the initial time, and N(t) is the number of atoms of the alkali metal atomic group at another time t.
[0127] The escape probability of alkali metal atoms under catalytic laser induction is taken as a function of frequency detuning, and the potential well depth is measured based on the frequency detuning function. The specific principle is as follows.
[0128] The potential well depth is measured, and the escape probability P(Δ) of the cold atom under the induction of the catalytic laser is used as a function of the frequency detuning amount Δ. The well depth W is measured based on the function of the frequency detuning amount Δ. Under the action of the catalytic laser, when two alkali metal atoms in the magneto-optical trap approach each other and collide, they will resonantly absorb a photon from the catalytic laser field, and at the same time obtain hΔ energy to be excited to the molecular state (h is Planck's constant). This molecule dissociates in a time far less than the lifetime of the excited state and separates with equal and opposite momentum in the center of mass coordinate system. Finally, each atom obtains E cat = hΔ / 2 kinetic energy (E cat is the atomic kinetic energy), if this kinetic energy is less than the potential well depth W, the cold atoms will remain in the well, and the catalytic laser-induced loss rate can be observed to gradually increase with the frequency detuning amount Δ until this kinetic energy approaches or exceeds the potential well depth W.

[0131] The vacuum degree in the three-dimensional grating magneto-optical trap system is determined based on the average heat loss rate coefficient of the cold atoms and the collision loss rate of the alkali metal atoms and the background gas.
[0132] Specifically, when measuring the vacuum degree, the potential well depth W and the average heat loss rate coefficient k of the cold atoms are loss The relationship is as follows:
[0133] k loss =〈σ loss v bg > (10)
[0134] σ loss is the collision loss cross section, V bg is the velocity of the background gas molecules.
[0135] The σ loss The following formula (11)
[0136]
[0137] Where C6 is the van der Waals coefficient, m t is the mass of the cold atom, W is the potential well depth; due to the background gas molecule velocity V bg The loss rate coefficient k loss It can be obtained by integrating the Maxwell-Boltzman distribution, as described in the following formula (12):
[0138]
[0139] In the formula, m bg is the background gas mass; K B is the Boltzmann constant; T is the temperature of the atomic group; m t is the mass of the cold atom, W is the potential well depth; Substituting the value of the potential well depth into k loss .
[0140] The vacuum degree P is calculated according to the theoretical formula (13) for inverting the vacuum degree P.
