冷原子光谱中大原子反冲引起的非对称性的观测

Observation of Large Atomic-Recoil Induced Asymmetries in Cold Atom Spectroscopy

C. W. Oates, G. Wilpers, L. Hollberg

摘要:

原子反冲效应导致大(25%)的不对称性,在简单的光谱研究的钙原子已被激光冷却到10微开尔文。从更熟悉的多普勒展宽域的光谱开始,我们展示了吸收和光的受激发射之间的基本不对称性如何体现在较短的光谱脉冲导致傅里叶变换制度。这些效应发生在频率尺度上,比反冲位移本身的大小大得多,并且在饱和光谱学中以前没有观察到。这些结果与基于自由膨胀中性原子的最新光学原子钟有关。

英文摘要:

The atomic recoil effect leads to large (25 %) asymmetries in simple spectroscopic investigations of Ca atoms that have been laser-cooled to 10 microkelvin. Starting with spectra from the more familiar Doppler-broadened domain, we show how the fundamental asymmetry between absorption and stimulated emission of light manifests itself when shorter spectroscopic pulses lead to the Fourier transform regime. These effects occur on frequency scales much larger than the size of the recoil shift itself, and have not been observed before in saturation spectroscopy. These results are relevant to state-of-the-art optical atomic clocks based on freely expanding neutral atoms.
