共振线极化光实现原子矢量磁力仪的理论研究

共振线偏振光激发原子张量磁矩,本文理论研究在矢量磁场和射频场的共同作用下,张量磁矩进动的模型,求解刘维尔方程获得透射光时域完整解析解,包括直流、一次和二次谐波分量.研究发现:当进动的拉比频率Ω1/(22~(1/2))时,两谐波间的干涉效应使直流分量和一次谐波对称成分的单吸收峰劈裂成双峰,裂距((Ω~2+Ω~4-Ω~2-1)~(3/2))~(1/2),一次谐波反对称成分在共振处产生干涉条纹.研究结果显示,谐波间的干涉也可导致直流分量和二次谐波线宽仅为一次谐波线宽的38%,且存在磁场取向临界点,在不同的取向区间分别利用直流及两谐波共振信号辨析磁场变化,可获得最佳测磁灵敏度;同时还可通过共振时直流分量及两谐波对称成分振幅来确定磁场与激光极化方向的夹角,利用两谐波反对称成分相移的差值来确定待测磁场在垂直光极化方向投影与射频场方向的夹角,进而实现结构简单的张量磁矩进动型矢量磁力仪.这种磁力仪适合构成磁力仪阵列,可用于磁定位、水下磁异常源的检测和地磁导航等领域.     

Merging of X-Ray photons in the field of a light atomic ion

The process of merging of three X-ray photons into one photon in the field of a light atomic ion is theoretically studied. A pronounced resonance structure and a strong angular anisotropy of the differential cross section for merging are predicted in the region of the incident photon energy ?ω ? I _1s /2 (I _1s is the threshold energy of ionization of the -shell of the ion). The magnitude of the observed merging cross section is estimated.     

Squeezing of an atom laser originating from atomic Bose-Einstein condensate interacting with light field

The quadrature squeezing properties of an atom laser originating from atomic Bose-Einstein condensate interacting with light field are studied. We find that the squeezing properties of the atom laser are dependent on the initial light field interacting with the atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. If the initial light field cannot be squeezed, such as number state or coherent state light field, the atom laser as well cannot be squeezed. However, if the initial light field interacting with the atomic Bose-Einstein condensate being in squeezed state, the atom laser can be squeezed periodically, and its squeezing depth is dependent on the intensity of interatoms interaction.

Time evolution of atomic inversion in a standing wave light field

The interaction between an atomic beam of two-level atoms and a standing wave light field has been studied by the exact solution of a time-dependent quantum system developed recently. When the initial atomic state is choosen to be ground, we find that with the limit of zero detuning the atoms will oscillate between the upper and the lower levels with a decaying amplitude. The most interesting result obtained in this paper is when the initial atomic state is a particular superposition of the two levels, now the system does not oscillate at any time.

SiO2and Si nanoscale patterning with an atomic force microscope

The use of an atomic force microscope (AFM) as a nanolithographic tool is demonstrated. A photoresist layer several nanometre thin isindented by the vibrating AFM tip, where software control switches the tapping force from the imaging to the patterning mode. The resist pattern is transferred into a 10 nm SiO₂layer on Si(100) by wet chemical etching resulting in 20–40 nm wide lines. Subsequent transfer into the Si substrate using anisotropic KOH etching formed 60 nm wide V grooves.     

The cumulative resonance in atomic ground state induced by modulated light field

The interaction of an atomic system with a light beam, intensity-modulated at the ground-state Zeeman frequency is analysed by the dressed-atom method. When the light field is resonant, this interaction produces a new type of degereracy of dressed-atom energy levels which is not of level crossing type. This gives rise to the cumulative resonance with a width depending on the light intensity.     

Ultranarrow-bandwidth atomic filter with Raman light amplification

A Raman-amplified atomic filter is demonstrated experimentally. With a coupling light detuned from the D2 line of 85Rb, a weak signal light can be amplified by a factor of 55, and the bandwidth of the filter's transmission spectrum is narrowed to approximately 60 MHz. Moreover, the transmission wavelength is adjustable by changing the coupling-light frequency. Compared with a conventional dispersive atomic filter, this Raman-amplified atomic filter could be more efficient to suppress background noise in free-space quantum-key distribution or a laser-communication system.     

Improving the mismatch between light and nanoscale objects with gold bowtie nanoantennas

Metallic bowtie nanoantennas should provide optical fields that are confined to spatial scales far below the diffraction limit. To improve the mismatch between optical wavelengths and nanoscale objects, we have lithographically fabricated Au bowties with lengths approximately 75 nm and gaps of tens of nm. Using two-photon-excited photoluminescence of Au, the local intensity enhancement factor relative to that for the incident diffraction-limited beam has been experimentally determined for the first time. Enhancements >10(3) occur for 20 nm gap bowties, in good agreement with theoretical simulations.     

Nonlinear nanoscale localization of magnetic excitations in atomic lattices

Reviewed here is the nonlinear intrinsic localization expected for large amplitude spin waves in a variety of magnetically ordered lattices. Both static and dynamic properties of intrinsic localized spin wave gap modes and resonant modes are surveyed in detail. The modulational instability of extended nonlinear spin waves is discussed as a mechanism for dynamical localization of spin waves in homogeneous magnetic lattices. The interest in this particular nonlinear dynamics area stems from the realization that some localized vibrations in perfectly periodic but nonintegrable lattices can be stabilized by lattice discreteness. However, in this rapidly growing area in nonlinear condensed matter research the experimental identification of intrinsic localized modes is yet to be demonstrated. To this end the study of spin lattice models has definite advantages over those previously presented for vibrational models both because of the importance of intrasite and intersite nonlinear interaction terms and because the dissipation of spin waves in magnetic materials is weak compared to that of lattice vibrations in crystals. Thus, both from the theoretical and the experimental points of view, nonlinear magnetic systems may provide more tractable candidates for the investigation of intrinsic localized modes which display nanoscale dimensions as well as for the future exploration of the quantum properties of such excitations.

Fringe shapes in a multiple-beam de Broglie-wave interferometer based on the atomic Kapitza-Dirac effect are studied. An all-optical implementation of such a device is proposed. A realization in the time-domain, using Bose-Einstein condensates released from a trap, seems viable within the present state of the art.
