基于斯塔克加速与减速的技术可产生低速度展宽的粒子集合，在诸多实验应用中十分有用。对于给定速度分布的粒子集合，这些技术会对总粒子群中的一小部分子集进行加速或减速，且速度不确定性低。然而，通过加速或减速平均速度附近的粒子来窄化原始速度分布，存在根本性限制且尚未被探索。本文以中性铯原子为例，开展粒子动力学的数值研究，探究不同相互作用 regime（ regime 译为“ regime”，即作用机制），明确关键限制，并提出一种作用机制，其中光学斯塔克减速可用于窄化传播集合围绕其平均速度的速度分布。这些发现对光学操控与控制、受控碰撞以及物质波干涉测量具有潜在意义。
英文摘要
Stark acceleration and deceleration based techniques for generating particle ensembles with low velocity spread are useful in many experimental applications. For a given velocity distribution of a particle ensemble, these techniques accelerate or decelerate a small subset of the total population, with a low velocity uncertainty. However, narrowing the original velocity distribution by accelerating or decelerating the ensemble particles near the mean velocity is fundamentally limited and not yet explored. We present a numerical study of particle dynamics using neutral cesium atoms as an example. We investigate different interaction regimes, identify key limitations, and propose an interaction regime in which optical Stark deceleration can be used to narrow the velocity distribution of a propagating ensemble about its mean velocity. These findings have potential implications for optical manipulation and control, controlled collisions, and matter interferometry.
