Magnetically Guiding Atoms with Current—Carrying Conductos
刘南春, 高伟建
Abstract
We propose a novel magnetic guide for cold neutral atoms using some current-carring conductors,The spatial distributions of the magnetic fields from a V-shaped or U-shaped current-carrying coductor are calculated.and the relationship between the resulting magnetic field and the parametes of the current-carrying conductors is analysed in dtail,The result shows that these current-craaying conductors can be used to realize a single or a controllable double magnetic guide of cold atoms in the weak-field-seeking state,and to construct various atom-optical elements,and even to realize a single-mode atomic waveguiding under certain conditions.
