It will be on atom using the frequency for reducing cooling laser L5 downwards after the cooling imprison to enough atoms of three-dimensional Magneto-Optical Trap It throws.For the first cold atom interference unit A, the upthrow initial velocity for controlling atom can be by the first cold atom cloud A-a1 and second Scheduled height is thrown on cold atom cloud A-a2;Control upthrow interval can make the first cold atom cloud A-a1 and the second cold atom cloud A-a2 is opposing stationary in upthrow flight course.Such first cold atom cloud A-a1 and the second cold atom cloud A-a2 are relative to vertical The Doppler of laser L1 is detuning identical, so that it may to manipulate the first cold atom cloud A-a1 and second simultaneously with a branch of vertical laser L1 Cold atom cloud A-a2.For second and third cold atom interference unit B, C, it is only necessary to one third cold atom cloud B-a1 of upthrow or The 4th cold atom cloud C-a1 of person.First cold atom cloud A-a1 of the first cold atom interference unit A upthrows, the interference of the second cold atom are single The third cold atom cloud B-a1 of first B upthrows, the 4th cold atom cloud C-a1 of third cold atom interference unit C upthrows height to protect It holds consistent.
Interference for vertical direction needs to carry out " state selection " in the vertical direction.Enter in the first cold atom cloud A-a1 After lower section interference region 102, the selection of energy level selection and speed can be carried out to atom simultaneously using vertical laser L1, referred to as " state selection ".Energy level selection includes the selection of the hyperfine structure energy level and magnetic sublevel of atom.Adjust laser frequency and vertical side To magnetic quantum number null magnon energy level resonance, they are chosen and by other atoms " blowing away ";Vertical direction The atom pair magnetic field that magnetic quantum number is zero is insensitive, can reduce the influence in magnetic field.Speed selection is exactly to utilize friction speed Doppler's mismatching angle that atom relative atom manipulates laser L1 is different, adjusts the frequency of Atomic Manipulation laser L1, intensity and continues Time selects the atom of specific speed distribution.The VELOCITY DISTRIBUTION of atom in the vertical direction can be narrower after speed selection, Be conducive to improve signal-to-noise ratio.
Interference for horizontal direction needs to carry out " state selection " in the horizontal direction.It is " state selection " and perpendicular in horizontal direction Histogram to " state selection " function it is identical, method is similar.It only difference is that " state selection " of horizontal direction will utilize horizontal direction Laser carries out.In this example system " state selection " is carried out using horizontal state selection laser L3.
It is exactly interventional procedures after state selection.Interventional procedures are generally typical three pulses matter wave interference process.Atomic group In atom be a kind of matter wave, make object using the vertical laser L1 of the three beams of constant duration or three groups of horizontal laser light L2 pulses Then conjunction beam can interfere phenomenon for the beam splitting of wave packet, the reflection of matter wave.Interference for vertical direction, in vertical direction After state selection is completed, the first cold atom cloud A-a1, the second cold atom cloud A-a2, the cold original of third are manipulated using the vertical laser L1 of three beams Son group B-a1, the 4th cold atom cloud C-a1 are completed at the same time interventional procedures.In the interferometric phase that the interventional procedures of vertical direction obtain, Include the information of acceleration of gravity vertical component, g can be expressed asz.Interference for horizontal direction, choosing in the horizontal direction After state is completed, the first cold atom cloud A-a1, the third cold atom cloud in same level are manipulated using three groups of horizontal laser light L2 B-a1, the 4th cold atom cloud C-a1 are completed at the same time interventional procedures.In the interferometric phase that the interventional procedures of horizontal direction obtain, including There is the information of acceleration of gravity horizontal component, g can be expressed asy
After the completion of interventional procedures, atom freely falls to detecting area 103, exploring laser light L4 at this moment can be utilized to irradiate former Son, and using 203 Measurement atom fluorescence intensity of photodetector to provide result of interference, show that four acceleration of gravity are vertical Component gzOr three acceleration of gravity horizontal component gy.Any two gravity can be directly extracted using suitable method to add The difference of velocity component.The institute of gravity gradient tensor can be obtained there are five isolated component by the difference of these components of acceleration.Gravity The expression formula of gradient tensor component is followed successively by:
