    摘要:

    锶原子光晶格钟在基础物理研究和时间频率精密测量领域中占有重要的地位。 中国计量科学研究院在第 1 套锶原子 光晶格钟 NIM-Sr1 的基础上,开展了进一步提升光钟性能的研究,研制出了第 2 套锶原子光晶格钟 NIM-Sr2。 NIM-Sr2 的物理系 统在量子参考体系制备、钟激光探寻及系统频移评估等方面进行了重新设计。 在原子炉和磁光阱之间新增真空差分结构,使原 子炉的运行对磁光阱区域真空压力的影响降低到 1×10 -8 Pa;将塞曼减速器中的通电线圈替换为永磁铁,优化了水冷反亥姆霍 兹线圈的缠绕方式,并向外延伸塞曼减速器通光窗口,把磁光阱区域环境温度的不均匀性降低到了 0. 166 K。 系统频移评估表 明,这些物理系统的改进显著减小了 NIM-Sr2 的系统频移不确定度,达到了 7. 2×10 -18 。

    Abstract:

    Strontium optical lattice clock plays a key role in fundamental physics research and precision measurement of time and frequency. Based on the research of its first strontium optical clock, NIM-Sr1, the National Institute of Metrology(NIM) has conducted in-depth study to enhance the performance of its optical clocks, designed and built the second strontium optical lattice clock, NIM-Sr2. Benefited from the experiences gained in the quantum reference preparation, clock transition interrogation and systematic frequency shift evaluation of NIM-Sr1, the physics apparatus of NIM-Sr2 is redesigned and improved. A vacuum differential pumping stage is added between the atomic oven and the magneto-optical trap (MOT) chamber, which reduces the MOT chamber pressure variation to 1×10 -8 Pa when the oven is switched between on and off. By replacing the coils in Zeeman slower with permanent magnets, optimizing the winding of the water-cooled anti-Helmholtz coils, and extending the viewport for Zeeman slowing laser beam, the inhomogeneity of the ambient temperature in the MOT region is reduced to 0. 166 K. The frequency evaluation revealed that these improvements significantly reduced the systematic shift uncertainty of NIM-Sr2 to 7. 2×10 -18 .
