This application relates to the field of
quantum sensing technology and proposes an optically coated
alkali metal gas
cell structure, comprising: a glass shell, including a
first light-transmitting surface, a second light-transmitting surface, a third light-transmitting surface, and a fourth light-transmitting surface; an
optical beam splitter, disposed on the
first light-transmitting surface, for splitting the incident
laser into a first beam and a second beam; a first optical reflective film, disposed on the second light-transmitting surface; a second optical reflective film, disposed on the third light-transmitting surface; and an optical anti-reflection film, disposed on the fourth light-transmitting surface. The first beam, after being reflected by the
optical beam splitter, is emitted as monitoring light, and the second beam, after being transmitted through the
optical beam splitter, is reflected sequentially by the first and second optical reflective films before emitting light from the fourth light-transmitting surface. By integrating the optical
beam splitter, reflective film, and anti-reflection film, the function of a polarizing
beam splitter prism is integrated with the
alkali metal gas
cell, which not only improves the probe integration and reduces the overall volume but also effectively extends the propagation path of the pump light within the gas
cell.
