23 results about "Optical lattice" patented technology

An optical lattice is formed by the interference of counter-propagating laser beams, creating a spatially periodic polarization pattern. The resulting periodic potential may trap neutral atoms via the Stark shift. Atoms are cooled and congregate in the locations of potential minima. The resulting arrangement of trapped atoms resembles a crystal lattice and can be used for quantum simulation.

A method for optimizing adiabatic compression for the production of a two-dimensional ultracold atomic gas

PendingCN122266495Ashort manufacturing timeImprove efficiencyComputational theoretical chemistryInstrumentsOptical latticeExcited state
The application discloses a method for preparing a two-dimensional ultracold atomic gas by optimizing adiabatic compression, and belongs to the technical field of ultracold atomic physics and optical lattice. The method takes the quantum adiabatic evolution of a three-dimensional ultracold atomic gas in an adjustable period optical lattice as a physical model basis, and equivalently describes the motion of atoms in the lattice bound direction as a one-dimensional quantum harmonic oscillator system varying with an external parameter. In the lattice compression process, the instantaneous energy level structure of the system evolves with time, and the minimum energy gap region between the lowest energy level and the first excited state is the main source of non-adiabatic transition. A non-adiabatic parameter is introduced to simultaneously describe the relationship between the instantaneous energy gap and the scanning rate of the parameter, which is used for quantitative evaluation of the adiabaticity of the system, and the Landau-Zener non-adiabatic transition model is combined to design and optimize the scanning curve of the lattice compression. The scheme can effectively reduce the probability of non-adiabatic excitation in the compression process, and significantly shorten the lattice compression time under the premise of ensuring the adiabatic evolution of the system.

The method includes: frequency modulation of lattice light using an acousto-optic modulator, causing its frequency to change with time according to a preset periodic function, generating a frequency-modulated laser which is then input into a polarization modulation module.

Dual-band optical-microwave atomic clock based on cesium atoms and implementation method thereof

This invention discloses a dual-band optical-microwave atomic clock based on cesium atoms and its implementation method. This invention utilizes cesium atoms, currently used for defining the second, as quantum references for both the microwave and optical atomic clocks, realizing atomic clocks in both microwave and optical bands. The two bands can be switched arbitrarily and can be output simultaneously. Compared to optical lattice clocks and ion clocks, the optical clock based on hot cesium atoms does not require an ultrastable local oscillator and an ultracold atomic quantum reference, offering advantages such as small size and long-term continuous operation. Compared to traditional microwave-pumped miniature cesium clocks, applying the laser output from the optical clock to the pump and probe beams of the optically pumped miniature cesium clock reduces laser frequency noise, resulting in a microwave clock with higher frequency stability. This invention requires only one local oscillator laser source, featuring a simple structure, convenient operation, excellent performance, and low cost. This invention is highly practical, expanding the application range of cesium-based microwave atomic clocks and miniaturized high-performance optical frequency atomic clocks.
