雷射冷却在近年來迅速地發展,並且成為重要的研究工具。在1975年雷射冷却首次被提出後,磁光阱(magneto-optical trap)、極性梯度冷卻(polarization gradient cooling)、蒸發冷却(evaporative cooling)...等等冷却技術都一一被發展出來。隨著技術的成熟,被捕捉的原子可達到的溫度愈來愈低。目前可達到的溫度在500 pK以下。由於雷射冷却的成熟,玻色愛因斯坦凝聚(Bose-Einstein condensation)得以實現。雷射冷却不只應用在原子分子物理,其應用已擴至凝體物理、電漿物理、量子計算。
我們建立了一套磁光阱系統,此系統可經由簡單的切換,由捕捉銣原子的系統換成捕捉鉀原子的系統或反之。這套系統主要包括一套自製的鈦藍寶石雷射、一台TUI LASER的半導體雷射(DL100)、一套飽和吸收系統、一組自製的反荷姆霍滋線圈(anti-Helmholtz coil)及Varian的離子幫浦(ion pump)。當鈦藍寶石雷射以Coherent的Verdi(V-6)雷射五瓦幫浦時,在766 nm 及 780 nm 約可出光430 mW,反荷姆霍滋線圈在軸上可提供約20 gauss/cm 的磁場梯度。
利用這套系統,在雷射緩慢掃頻的情況下,成功地利用87Rb D2躍遷捕捉到銣原子,也成功地利用39K D2躍遷捕捉到鉀原子。除此之外,並利用飽和吸收系統掃出87Rb D2躍遷、39K D2躍遷及39K D1躍遷的飽和吸收光譜及頻率調制光譜(FM spectroscopy)。
未來的工作主要是再加上另一台鈦藍寶石雷射到此系統中,組成一套可以同時捕捉鉀原子與銣原子的磁光阱系統,以此系統研究超冷鉀原子與銣原子混合物的性質。
Laser cooling has been developed rapidly in rent years. Then, laser cooling has became an important tool in research. Since laser cooling was proposed in 1975, techniques of cooling such as magneto-optical trap, polarization gradient cooling and evaporative cooling were developed. The trapped atoms can be cooled below 500 pK. Bose-Einstein condensation was achieved because of laser cooling. Besides atomic and molecular physics, laser cooling is applied to condensed matter physics, plasma physics and quantum computing.
A system of magneto-optical trap has been set up in our laboratory. The system can be switched to as a 39K or 87Rb MOT. The system is mainly composed of a home-made Ti:sapphire laser and a diode laser(DL100). The Ti:sapphire laser has an output power of 430 mW pumped by a 5W DPSS green laser. The gradient of magnetic field of MOT is about 20 g/cm.
We trapped potassium and rubidium with this system by slowly scanning the frequency of the trapping laser. Saturation spectroscopy and FM spectroscopy of D1 transition of 39K , D2 transition of 39K and D2 transition of 87Rb were observed. Our MOT system could be improved to trap rubidium and potassium simultaneously by adding another Ti: sapphire laser. Ultracold mixture of atomic rubidium and potassium will be studied with such an improved system.
