超冷原子的晶格热力学

Lattice Thermodynamics for Ultra-Cold Atoms

D. McKay, M. White, B. DeMarco

摘要:

我们测量了超冷Rb-87气体转移到光晶格中的温度,并与非相互作用的组合晶格-抛物势的热力学进行了比较。绝对温度是在低温下通过拟合准动量分布确定的,准动量分布是用能带映射得到的,即,与带隙相比缓慢地关闭晶格势。我们表明,在高温下采用这种技术得到的分布不是准动量分布,通过数值模拟。为了克服这一限制,我们提取温度使用的陷阱中的气体的大小。

英文摘要:

We measure the temperature of ultra-cold Rb-87 gases transferred into an optical lattice and compare to non-interacting thermodynamics for a combined lattice--parabolic potential. Absolute temperature is determined at low temperature by fitting quasimomentum distributions obtained using bandmapping, i.e., turning off the lattice potential slowly compared with the bandgap. We show that distributions obtained at high temperature employing this technique are not quasimomentum distributions through numerical simulations. To overcome this limitation, we extract temperature using the in-trap size of the gas.
