Cold atom space clock with counter-propagating atoms

<正>We discuss the feasibility of realizing a cold atom space clock with counter-propagating cold atoms in microgravity.The design of the space clock is based on an atomic beam clock with Ramsey cavity,except that magneto-optical trap(MOT) is placed at each side.Cold atoms are launched simultaneously from the MOTs at both sides of the clock and they move at the counter-direction towards each other.The velocity of the launched atoms is precisely controlled to Ramsauer-Townsend resonance so that no additional collision frequency shift takes place.Such configuration can efficiently cancel the frequency shift resulting from cavity phase shift and increase the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR).     

准二维各向同性激光冷却的光场仿真

在各向同性激光冷却原子实验中,光场分布是影响冷原子分布的重要因素,可以利用真空腔的结构和激光的注入方式的不同来调控腔内的冷原子分布。本文提出了一种扁平形漫反射腔体结构,并对冷却光的不同注入方式和不同尺寸的腔体结构形成的光场分布进行了仿真。仿真结果表明,与自由空间光入射相比,激光由光纤入射能够获得更均匀的准二维分布的光场,因此可以通过调节光纤的入射角度及光纤参数,实现对光场均匀度的优化。此外,随着腔体边长的等比放大,腔内光功率密度呈负指数幂衰减。扁平形漫反射腔形状接近二维,在准二维分布的光场和特殊的扁平形腔体结构的作用下,能够获得呈准二维分布的冷原子,在量子传感及量子精密测量领域具有重要的应用前景。     

全自动蒸馏前处理-ID/GC-ICP-MS测定海水中痕量甲基汞

建立了基于自动蒸馏前处理,气相色谱-电感耦合等离子质谱联用(GC-ICP-MS),同位素稀释法(ID)测定海水中痕量甲基汞的分析方法。结果表明,自动蒸馏仪在45 min内即可完成海水样品的蒸馏,采用Br Cl溶液能有效消除蒸馏管路中甲基汞的残留,降低实验空白;同位素稀释剂的添加量对甲基汞的测定结果无明显影响,样品中总汞质量浓度低于1. 0μg·L~(-1)时,因操作产生的甲基汞量可忽略不计。海水中甲基汞的加标回收率为98. 2%~122%,天然海水及加标海水中甲基汞的相对标准偏差(RSD)分别为16%和5. 4%,方法检出限为0. 009 ng·L~(-1)。以大连湾表层海水为实际样品,测得水样中甲基汞的质量浓度的平均值为(0. 103±0. 036) ng·L~(-1),方法可满足近岸海水中痕量甲基汞的分析要求。     

Vibration-insensitive fiber spool for laser stabilization

Excess frequency noise induced by mechanical vibration is the dominant noise source at low Fourier frequencies in fiber-delay-line stabilized lasers. To resolve this problem, a double-winding fiber spool is designed and implemented that has ultralow acceleration sensitivity in all spatial directions. By carefully choosing the optimal geometry parameters of the fiber spool, we achieve acceleration sensitivity of 8 × 10~(-11)/g and 3 × 10~(-11)/g(g denotes the gravitational acceleration) in axial and radial directions, respectively.

Miniaturized optical system for atomic fountain clock

Using modularized components, we have built a miniaturized optical system for 87Rb atomic fountain clock that is fitted on an 80 cm × 60 cm optical breadboard. Compared with the conventional optical setup on the table, our system is more compact, more robust and miniaturized. Taking advantage of this system, laser beams are transmitted through eight optical fibre patch cords from the optical breadboard to an ultra high vacuum system. This optical setup has operated for five months in our fountain system and required no alignment.     

Microwave interrogation cavity for the rubidium space cold atom clock

The performance of space cold atom clocks(SCACs) should be improved thanks to the microgravity environment in space.The microwave interrogation cavity is a key element in a SCAC.In this paper,we develop a microwave interrogation cavity especially for the rubidium SCAC.The interrogation cavity has two microwave interaction zones with a single feedin source,which is located at the center of the cavity for symmetric coupling excitation and to ensure that the two interaction zones are in phase.The interrogation cavity has a measured resonance frequency of 6.835056471 GHz with a loaded quality factor of nearly 4200,which shows good agreement with simulation results.We measure the Rabi frequency of the clock transition of the rubidium atom in each microwave interaction zone,and subsequently demonstrate that the distributions of the magnetic field in the two interaction zones are the same and meet all requirements of the rubidium SCAC.     

一种改进的速度加姿态匹配传递对准方法

为了提高传统速度加姿态匹配传递对准方法的快速性,设计了一种改进的传递对准方法,该方法提出在子惯导初始化之前利用主、子惯导陀螺和加速度计测量信息进行短时间的预对准,并设计了速度加姿态匹配的传递对准滤波模型。与传统传递对准方法相比,通过在预对准阶段直接计算主、子惯导之间的安装误差矩阵,子惯导进行初始装订时可以得到较小的初始姿态误差,从而使传递对准滤波器能够快速收敛,提高了对准的快速性和精确度。试验结果表明,通过预对准后对准滤波器在30s之内即可完成对准,姿态估计误差为1′,方位估计误差为1.5′,比传统传递对准方法具有更好的对准性能。
