Description

Large solid angle fluorescence collection optical system
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of cold atoms, and particularly relates to a fluorescence signal detection and collection optical technology.
Background
The cold atom technology is a technology for realizing the research of atomic physical properties and precision measurement by controlling the change of atomic quantum states, and is applied to a plurality of fields such as quantum communication, atomic clocks, atomic gravimeters, quantum simulation and the like. The cold atom precision measurement result is expressed in the form of atomic quantum state distribution, and can be obtained by exciting different quantum states by adopting specific laser to generate fluorescence radiation and obtaining the measurement result by obtaining the fluorescence radiation intensity.
The cold atom device is required to be better than 10-7Pa, and is used for isolating the interference of impurity gas to measurement. In order to obtain a fluorescence signal with sufficient intensity, atomic gas dispersed in the space needs to be captured from background gas in a vacuum environment and aggregated into cold atomic groups. And then the fluorescence signal is obtained by focusing on the position of the atomic group through the optical lens group.
The fluorescence generated by exciting the atomic group by the laser is uniformly radiated to the whole space by taking the atomic group as the center, namely the spatial angle of the fluorescence distribution is 4 pi. The traditional fluorescence collection method is to image and collect fluorescence for cold atomic groups by an optical lens group outside a vacuum system. The spatial angle of the collected fluorescence depends on the objective numerical aperture of the optical lens group. The imaging optical system collects fluorescence with a spatial angle theoretical limit not exceeding 2 pi (half-space range). In practical cases, the distance from the imaging optical system to the atomic group is not 0 (located outside the vacuum system), and the aperture of the imaging optical system is limited. Typically, the spatial angle of collection of the radical fluorescence does not exceed 0.1 pi, corresponding to a numerical aperture of about 0.3 for the optical lens set. Therefore, the effective signal of the current radical fluorescence collection only accounts for 2.5% of the total fluorescence. Therefore, how to increase the fluorescence collection ratio, increase the signal-to-noise ratio of fluorescence detection, and further directly increase the quantum precision measurement energy is a subject to be researched at present.

The present implementation provides a large solid angle fluorescence collection optical system that improves the detection signal-to-noise ratio by utilizing the fluorescence collection optical system to increase the solid angle range of cold radical fluorescence collection.

A fluorescent converging lens group 50 is arranged outside the vacuum box 10 and at a position right opposite to the opening of the groove 21, and the fluorescent converging lens group 50 is used for converging the fluorescent light reflected by the groove 21; meanwhile, a photoelectric detector 60 is arranged behind the fluorescence converging mirror group 50, and the photoelectric detector 60 is used for collecting fluorescence converged by the fluorescence converging mirror group 50.
In the operation of collecting fluorescence specifically, when the cold radical 100 falls to the focal length f of the groove 21 in the light collecting mirror 20, the collimated laser source 30 emits a fluorescence excitation beam a to excite the cold radical 100, and the fluorescence excitation beam a irradiates the reflector 40 to be reflected, where the reflected laser is called fluorescence excitation beam B; the transmission paths of the fluorescence excitation light beam A and the fluorescence excitation light beam B are overlapped and opposite in direction, and the cold atomic groups 100 are excited together to generate fluorescence light rays 200 which are uniformly radiated in a space range; the fluorescence light 200 in the large solid angle range is transmitted out of the vacuum box 10 along the same general direction through the deflection of the groove 21 profile, and is converged on the photoelectric detector 60 through the fluorescence converging mirror group 50, so that the fluorescence collection in the large solid angle range is obtained.
In the scheme, the vacuum degree of the vacuum box 10 is better than 10-7Pa, provides a physical environment for the formation and maintenance of cold radicals 100. Meanwhile, the vacuum box 10 is made of titanium alloy, and a fluorescence observation window is provided on the vacuum box 10.

In this embodiment, the reflector 40 is a circular plane reflector made of quartz substrate, and the surface of the reflector 40 is plated with a high reflective film.
In this embodiment, the fluorescence converging lens set 50 is a double cemented lens.
The use of a large solid angle fluorescence collection optical system is described below in a specific embodiment.
The cold atomic group 100 to be observed adopts rubidium atom isotope Rb87. Cold radicals 100 are collected from the rubidium atom vapor in the vacuum chamber 10 by a magneto-optical trap technique. The cold radical 100 contains about 1 x 107 rubidium atoms. The collector mirror 20 is designed to deflect the spatially uniformly distributed fluorescence generated by the cold radicals 100 into parallel beams that are transmitted out of the vacuum box 10. Therefore, the curve of the profile of the light-collecting mirror 20 needs to be parabolic, which satisfies:
y2=4fx

The light transmission radius of the light collecting mirror 20 can be calculated, and the surface shape size of the light collecting mirror 20 can be obtained.
The fluorescence excitation beam A emitted by the collimated laser source 30 is a Gaussian beam, and a collimated laser beam with the diameter of 10mm and the wavelength of 780nm corresponds to the transition energy level of rubidium atoms. In order to allow the cold radical 100 to fall into the condenser 20 and to irradiate the fluorescence excitation beam a to the cold radical 100, the diameter of the through-holes (upper through-hole 22, lower through-hole 23) formed above and below the condenser 20 is 12 mm.
The fluorescence excitation light beam a reaches the reflecting mirror 40 through the through hole of the light collecting mirror 20. The reflector 40 is a round plane reflector made of standard quartz base materials with the caliber of 25.4mm, the surface of the reflector is plated with a 780nm high-reflection film, and the reflectivity reaches 99%. The fluorescence excitation beam A generates a fluorescence excitation beam B through the reflecting mirror 40, and the fluorescence excitation beam B is also a Gaussian beam and is a collimated laser beam with the diameter of 10mm and the wavelength of 780 nm.

According to the technical scheme, through reasonable structural arrangement, particularly through the arrangement of the groove with the parabolic profile, the solid angle range of cold atomic group fluorescence collection can be effectively improved, and therefore the detection signal-to-noise ratio is improved.
