Magnetic Surface Microtraps for Two—Species Bose—Einstein Condensations
胡建军, 印建平
Abstract
We propose a novel magnetic surface microtrap(i.e. a double Z-wire trap) for the study of two-species Bose-Einstein condensations.The spatial distributions of the magnetic fields from the double Z-wire configurations and their gradients and curvatures are calculated and analysed.The result shows that the proposed surface trap has double magnetic wells and can be continuously changed into a single-well trap be reducing the current in a straight wire,and the maximum field gradient greater than 5×10^4G/cm and the maximum field curvature (at each trap centre) greater than 2.5×10^7G/cm^2 can be generated in our double-well traps,which can be used to realize two-species Bose-Einstein condensations and to study the properties of double-well Bose-Einstein condensations and so on
