Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of quantum sensing (nuclear magnetic resonance gyro), in particular to a nuclear magnetic resonance gyro detection light intensity and frequency synchronous closed-loop control method and system. BACKGROUND
[0002] The nuclear magnetic resonance gyro is a kind of atomic spin gyro that uses the invariance of the inertial space of the inert gas atomic nucleus spin magnetic resonance frequency to realize the carrier angular rate measurement. In the nuclear magnetic resonance gyro, the magnetic resonance signal of the nuclear spin needs to be detected indirectly through the detection of the precession signal of the alkali metal atomic electron spin based on the optical rotation effect of the linearly polarized detection laser, because the optical field is not easy to directly manipulate the nuclear spin. In this process, the detection laser power and frequency fluctuation will directly produce the magnetic resonance signal detection error, and then affect the accuracy and stability of the angular rate measurement of the nuclear magnetic resonance gyro, so it is necessary to perform closed-loop stable control on the power and frequency of the detection laser.
[0003] However, the existing laser power and frequency synchronous closed-loop control method based on atomic absorption peak by adjusting the current and temperature of the laser (Mu W., Hu Z., Wang J., et al. Intensity and frequency stabilization of a laser diode by simultaneously controlling its temperature and current [C]. Applied Optics and Photonics China (AOPC2017), 2017: 1045728) is only applicable to the power and frequency closed-loop control of the driving laser. For the detection laser, the detection laser frequency needs to be greatly detuned, far away from the atomic absorption peak, so it is difficult to realize the detuned frequency stable control of the detection laser; the existing laser detuning frequency stabilization method based on transfer cavity (Zhai Yueyang, Li Xiufei, Quan Wei, et al. A laser double stable frequency optical path system for SERF atomic inertial measurement device [P]. ZL201910034846. X) and the laser power closed-loop control method based on optical modulator (Fang Jiancheng, Huang Jiong, Xing Li, et al. A SERF atomic spin gyro all-optical light intensity stabilization control system [P]. 201710916926. 9) need to additionally increase F-P cavity, electro-optical or acousto-optical optical devices, which is difficult to meet the miniaturization requirement of the nuclear magnetic resonance gyro.

[0050] In order to have a further understanding of the present application, the following Figure 1 The nuclear magnetic resonance gyroscope detection laser light intensity and frequency synchronous closed loop control method provided by the first embodiment of the present application is described in detail.
[0051] As Figure 1As shown, a nuclear magnetic resonance gyroscope detection laser power and frequency synchronous closed loop stable control system, the system comprises collimating beam expanding detection laser light source 1, first half wave plate 2, first polarization beam splitter prism 3, polarization independent beam splitter prism 4, alkali metal atom cell 5, three-position magnetic field coil and magnetic shield cylinder 6, second half wave plate 7, second polarization beam splitter prism 8, first photodetector 9, second photodetector 10, third photodetector 11, first operational amplifier, second operational amplifier and signal processing and control unit; wherein the first photodetector 9, second photodetector 10, first operational amplifier and second operational amplifier constitute a balanced differential sum detector, the first operational amplifier is used to calculate the differential signal between the first photodetector 9 and the second photodetector 10, and the second operational amplifier is used to calculate the sum signal between the first photodetector 9 and the second photodetector 10; the detection laser emitted along the collimating beam expanding detection laser light source 1 is divided into two beams after the first half wave plate 2, polarization beam splitter prism 3 and polarization independent beam splitter prism 4, one of which enters the third photodetector 11, and the third photodetector 11 converts the optical signal into an electrical signal and sends it to the signal processing and control unit, and the stable control of the detection laser power is realized by adjusting the injection current of the collimating beam expanding detection laser light source 1; the other beam enters the balanced differential sum detector after passing through the atom cell 5, the differential signal is used to detect the atomic spin precession signal, and the sum signal reflects the change of the detection light frequency, and the sum signal is sent to the signal processing and control unit, and the stable control of the detection laser frequency is realized by adjusting the laser tube temperature of the collimating beam expanding detection laser light source 1.
[0052] The laser emitted by the collimating beam expanding detection laser light source 1 is approximately linearly polarized laser, and the first half wave plate 2 adjusts the polarization direction to horizontal polarization direction, which is consistent with the direction of the light transmission axis of the polarization beam splitter prism 3.
[0053] The second half wave plate 7 adjusts the polarization direction of the detection laser emitted through the alkali metal atom cell 5 to a direction of about 45° with the horizontal direction, and after entering the polarization beam splitter prism 8, it is divided into two beams with approximately equal power, which are then differentially summed by the first photodetector 9 and the second photodetector 10.
[0054] The alkali metal atom cell contains Rb or Cs alkali metal atoms, buffer gas N2, inert gas atoms 129Xe and 131Xe, and is heated to about 120℃ (corresponding to the working temperature of Rb atoms) or 90℃ (corresponding to the working temperature of Cs atoms) by a magnetic-free electric heating film, so that the cell contains a high density of alkali metal atom vapor;
[0055] The laser wavelength emitted by the collimated and expanded detection laser source 1 is tuned to be about 0.1-0.3 nm detuned from the corresponding wavelength of the alkali metal atom absorption spectral line D1 line, so as to ensure that the optical rotation signal generated by the detection light after passing through the gas chamber is the strongest.
[0056] The detection laser is split by the polarization-independent beam splitter prism 4 into one beam entering the third photodetector, the splitting ratio of the polarization-independent beam splitter prism 4 is 1:1, and the third photodetector 11 converts the optical signal into an electrical signal and sends it to the signal processing and control unit, and the stable control of the detection laser power is realized by adjusting the injection current of the collimated and expanded detection laser source 1, that is, the laser power of the other beam split by the polarization-independent beam splitter prism 4 entering the atomic gas chamber is stable;
[0057] The relationship between the detection laser power split by the polarization-independent beam splitter prism 4 and entering the alkali metal atom gas chamber 5 and the detection laser power emitted after passing through the alkali metal atom gas chamber 5 is:
[0058] I=I0e -nσ (ν) L

Under the condition that the detection light intensity and the gas chamber temperature are closed-loop stable controlled, I0 and n can be approximately constant, and since the detection laser frequency ν is detuned from the resonance absorption frequency ν0 of the alkali metal atom, the change of the detection laser power I emitted after passing through the alkali metal atom gas chamber 5 is approximately proportional to the change of the detection laser frequency ν in a small range, which can be used to measure the fluctuation of the detection laser frequency and further perform frequency stable control.
[0062] The laser powers of the two beams split by the polarization beam splitter prism 8 and entering the first photodetector 9 and the second photodetector 10 can be represented as:
[0063]
[0064] Wherein θ is the optical rotation angle generated by the atomic spin precession in the alkali metal atom cell 5, the sum of the laser power detected by the two detectors is the detection laser power I emitted by the alkali metal atom cell 5, which can be used to measure the fluctuation of the detection laser frequency and then perform frequency stabilization control.

The polarization-independent beam splitter prism 4 divides a detection laser into a third photodetector 11. The second polarization beam splitter prism 8 divides the detection laser after the alkali metal atom cell 5 into two beams, which enter the first photodetector 9 and the second photodetector 10, respectively. The detection laser emitted by the collimated and expanded detection laser source 1 is divided into two beams after the first half-wave plate 2, the first polarization beam splitter prism 3, and the polarization-independent beam splitter prism 4. One beam enters the third photodetector 11, which converts the optical signal into an electrical signal and sends it to the signal processing and control unit. The injection current of the collimated and expanded detection laser source 1 is adjusted to achieve stable control of the detection laser power. The other beam passes through the alkali metal atom cell and enters the balanced differential summing detector composed of the first photodetector 9, the second photodetector 10, the first operational amplifier, and the second operational amplifier. The differential signal is used to detect the atomic spin precession signal, and the summing signal reflects the change of the detection laser frequency.
