Publication number: 20230160683Abstract: An atomic beam is irradiated with a first, a second, and a third laser beam. The first laser beam and the third laser beam each have a wavelength corresponding to a transition between a ground state and a first excited state. The second laser beam has a wavelength corresponding to a transition between the ground state and a second excited state. First, atoms each having a smaller velocity component than a predetermined velocity in a direction orthogonal to the traveling direction of the atomic beam are changed from the ground state to the first excited state by the first laser beam. Subsequently, a momentum is provided for individual atoms in the ground state by the second laser beam, which removes the atoms from the atomic beam. Finally, atoms in the first excited state are returned from the first excited state to the ground state by the third laser beam.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 19, 2023Publication date: May 25, 2023Applicants: JAPAN AVIATION ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY, LIMITED, TOKYO INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGYInventors: Mikio KOZUMA, Ryotaro INOUE, Toshiyuki HOSOYA, Atsushi TANAKA
