Introduction to the missions of “Quantum Control Laboratory” in IAMS
量子控制銫原子之研究── 人們的夢想:從了解微觀世界到控制微觀世界Studies on Quantum Controlled Cs atoms-- A dream from comprehend to control the microscopic world
Outline • Quantum controlled by femto-second comb laser • What we need in improving the quantum control technique?
A quantum system may include: matter quantum states photon states or or or or Or … Atom wavefunction Electron-hole pair Molecule dynamics Ionization rate Cavity modes Quantum system determined by God Photon quantum state Quantum system controlled by human being Total quantum system then be controllable !

量子控制實驗室 中研院 原子分子研究所331實驗室
光頻率梳雷射於2000年研發成功 2005即獲得諾貝爾獎 • 實驗室未來的方向為利用光梳雷射進行各種量子干涉之觀察與控制,如︰ • 同調激發原子,觀察波函數量子干涉 • 光梳與原子交互作用,進行量子光學實驗 • 與化學動力學專家合作進行各種分子量子態的控制
歡迎您來我們實驗室參觀! 來我們實驗室你可以獲得以下的訓練 • 雷射物理 • (CW and pulse,我們常須自己改雷射規格) • 電子電路 • (我們必須自製回授控制線路,溫控器,穩定電流源等) • 光電元件 • (我們常自製光電元件,如光偵測器,電光晶體等) • 量子力學 • 高精密雷射光譜技術
