摘要
本文提出了用液晶空间光调制器制作复合相位光栅、产生三维光阱阵列的新方案.在本方案中,首先将一维矩形光栅转变为能够产生纵向光阱阵列的环形光栅,再把环形光栅和二维矩形光栅组合成复合光栅.根据现有空间光调制器的技术参数,模拟仿真设计了产生5×5×5光阱阵列的光栅,以普通功率的高斯光波为输入光,正透镜聚焦衍射光,计算输出光强分布,结果表明:在透镜焦点附近获得具有很高峰值光强和光强梯度的三维光阱阵列,囚禁冷原子的光学偶极势达到mK量级,对原子的作用力远大于原子的重力.用大功率激光作为输入光波时,产生的光阱阵列也能用于囚禁Stark减速后的冷分子.
In this paper, a new scheme of generating a three-dimensional array of optical trap is proposed by using a composite phase grating that is fabricated by liquid crystal spatial light modulator. The composite phase grating is formed by combining the circular grating, which is generated by transforming a one-dimensional rectangular grating into a circular grating that can produce the longitudinal array of optical trap, with a two-dimensional rectangular grating. The grating that generates 5 × 5× 5 array of optical trap is simulated according to the technical parameters of the spatial light modulator. The output intensity distribution is calculated by using the Gaussian light wave with ordinary power as input light and focusing the diffracting light with lens. The results show that three-dimensional array of optical trap with a very high peak value of intensity and an intensity gradient is obtained around the focus of the lens. The optical dipole potential of trapping cold atoms achieves the order of mK, and the interaction force between the atom and the optical field is much greater than the atom gravity. When the high power laser is used as input light, the generated array of optical trap can also be employed to trap the cold molecules produced by Stark deceleration.
