The objective of this paper is to improve upon the 50 kHz error encountered by senior Ting-Ju Chen when using dispenser to collect data in a vacuum[1]. The ultimate goal is to measure the hyperfine structure and absolute frequency of the 6D5/2 state in the future.
Our system consists of two laser systems, referred to as the master laser and the slave laser. The master laser frequency is locked to the 6S1/2 F = 3, 4 → 6D3/2 transition line. The slave laser frequency is controlled via an offset frequency lock technique to obtain the Doppler-free two photon transition line in a vacuum. We improved upon the vacuum chamber designed by senior Chi-Hsiang Chu, using an ampoule to provide Cs in a vacuum and measuring the absolute frequency and hyperfine structure of the 6D3/2 state[2].
Our new vacuum design generates a higher particle concentration than the Cs vapor produced by the dispenser[1]. The signal strength is comparable to that obtained with a standard Pyrex cell, with a higher signal to-noise ratio. In the region where Cs interacts with the laser, we use a Helmholtz coil to mitigate magnetic interference and avoid frequency shifts caused by the Zeeman effect. Power stabilization via an AOM is employed to measure the AC Stark shift.
During the measurement of the collision shift, we found that particle concentration is affected by the pumping rate at the gate valve, impacting the signal strength and linewidth of the spectral lines. Additionally, we discovered that the frequency accuracy of the Rb clock provided by Chunghwa Telecom varies over time, leading to inaccurate absolute frequency measurements. The frequency accuracy of the Rb clock can degrade from 1 ∗ 10−11 to 5 ∗ 10−11 over six weeks, causing a shift of approximately 17 kHz in our system.
Finally, when measuring the frequency intervals of the four energy levels of 6D3/2, we found a significant discrepancy compared to the data measured by Senior Jeng En[3]. Consequently, we measured the data for the transition 6S1/2 F = 3 → 6D3/2 to confirm whether 6S1/2 F = 3, 4 conform to clock frequency, recalculated the value of the hyperfine coupling constant, and compared it with past values. |
