Pulsed loading of a magneto-optical trap on atom chip for fast pressure recovery in ultrahigh vacuum environment
arxiv(2024)
摘要
This study presents investigations on pulsed loading of a magneto-optical
trap (MOT) on an atom chip in an UHV environment. Using three parallel
resistively heated Rb-metal dispensers activated by pulsed current supply,
approximately 3.0 × 10^7 cold ^87Rb atoms were loaded into the
MOT. A current pulse of ∼ 24 A with duration of ∼ 10 s raised the
pressure in the chamber from 2.0 × 10^-10 Torr to 3.3 ×
10^-10 Torr. Remarkably, the pressure recovery time after switching off the
dispensers current was found to be ∼ 600 ms, making a significant
advancement in achieving fast recovery of UHV environment surrounding the MOT
region. This study is very useful for laser cooling and magnetic trapping /
evaporative cooling of atoms on atom chip in the same UHV chamber.
