Spinor matterwave control with nanosecond spin-dependent kicks
arXiv:2202.09709 · doi:10.1103/PRXQuantum.3.040301
Abstract
Significant aspects of advanced quantum technology today rely on rapid control of atomic matterwaves with hyperfine Raman transitions. Unfortunately, efficient Raman excitations are usually accompanied by uncompensated dynamic phases and coherent spin-leakages, preventing accurate and repetitive transfer of recoil momentum to large samples. We provide systematic study to demonstrate that the limitations can be substantially overcame by dynamically programming an adiabatic pulse sequence. Experimentally, counter-propagating frequency-chirped pulses are programmed on an optical delay line to parallelly drive five hyperfine Raman transitions of Rb atoms for spin-dependent kick (SDK) within ~nanoseconds, with an inferred fidelity. Aided by numerical modeling, we demonstrate that by alternating the chirps of successive pulses in a balanced fashion, accumulation of non-adiabatic errors including the spin-leakages can be managed, while the dynamic phases can be robustly cancelled. Operating on a phase-stable delay line, the method supports precise, fast, and flexible control of spinor matterwave with efficient Raman excitations.
