摘要
We present a scheme for generating a ring magnetic waveguide on a single-layer atom chip. The wire layout consists of two interleaved Archimedean spirals of the same size. The waveguide avoids the trapping perturbation caused by the input and output ports, resulting in an enclosed guiding loop for neutral atoms in weak-field seeking states. Such a configuration can create a tight and deep trap potential with a small current. Taking the [F = 2, mF =2} state of 87Rb as an example, the trap frequency and depth are estimated to be 18kHz and 335 μK, respectively, with adc current of 2 A.
