在QUIC阱中经蒸发冷却获得了2×10^5个|F=2,mF=2〉态的”Rb原子气体的玻色·爱因斯坦凝聚.验证了紧束缚状态下原子云的轴向尺寸的变化作为BEC相变的判据,观察了从热原子气体到玻色.爱因斯坦凝聚的相变过程.测量了自由膨胀过程中BEC的纵横比变化,并和理论预言进行了对比.
By evaporative cooling in QUIC trap, Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) was achieved with 2 ×10^587^Rb atoms in | F = 2, mF = 2) state. We have demonstrated the criterion of BEC transition by the variation of the axial size of the atoms in tight confinement, and observed phase transition from thermal atomic gases to Bose-Einstein condensate, and measured the shift of aspect ratio of BEC during free expansion, which compared with theoretical prediction.
