The effect of temperature on optical absorption cross section of bimetallic core-shell nano particles
In this paper, the temperature dependence on optical absorption cross section of the core shell bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) is investigated in quasi static approximation. Temperature dependence of the plasmon resonance is important issue because of recent applications of NPs of noble metal for heat treating of cancer and the computer chips. The effect of temperature on surface plasmon resona...
متن کاملDouble-resonance spectroscopy in Rubidium vapour-cells for high performance and miniature atomic clocks
We report our studies on using microwave-optical double-resonance (DR) spectroscopy for a high-performance Rb vapour-cell atomic clock in view of future industrial applications. The clock physics package is very compact with a total volume of only 0.8 dm. It contains a recently in-house developed magnetron-type cavity and a Rb vapour cell. A homedmade frequency-stabilized laser system with an i...
متن کاملVCSELs for Atomic Clock Demonstrators
Miniaturized atomic clocks (MACs) [1] are key elements for many applications such as communication systems, remote sensing, and global positioning. Such clocks use the principle of all-optical coherent population trapping (CPT) excitation which does not require a microwave cavity and VCSELs are the ideal light sources. They must feature strictly polarization-stable single-mode emission, have a ...
متن کاملReliability characteristics of microfabricated Rb mini-lamps for optical pumping in miniature atomic clocks and magnetometers
With the rising need for microfabricated chip-scale atomic clocks to enable high precision timekeeping in portable applications, there has been active interest in developing miniature (<few cm), chip-scale alkali vapor lamps, since vapor plasma discharge sources are currently the standard for optical pumping in double-resonance clocks. We reported in 2012 a first microfabricated chip-scale Rubi...
متن کاملAtomic optical clocks and search for variation of the fine structure
Theories unifying gravity and other interactions suggest the possibility of spatial and temporal variation of physical “constants”. Accuracy achieved for the atomic optical frequency standards (optical clocks) approaches the level when possible time evolution of the fine structure constant α can be studied by comparisons of rates between clocks based on different atomic transitions in different...
