  • 基于里德堡原子的微波测量技术因具有宽频带、小尺寸探头、高灵敏度等优点而受到广泛关注,激光系统的自动稳频是提升原子微波测量系统自动化水平与响应速度的关键环节。然而,现有系统多依赖人工操作实现激光频率锁定,针对原子微波测量双波长激光自动稳频的研究尚不充分。本文提出一种基于光谱峰距离的峰识别算法,实现对饱和吸收光谱与电磁诱导透明光谱中目标峰的准确定位,并以此为频率基准直接驱动激光自动稳频闭环,从而完成探测光与耦合光频率的自动锁定。测量结果表明,探测光频率自动锁定耗时5.55秒,耦合光频率自动锁定耗时13.9秒;探测光频率秒级稳定度达10-10量级,32 s平均时间下阿伦偏差最小为1.1×10-10 ;耦合光频率秒级稳定度也在10-10量级,16 s平均时间下阿伦偏差最小为2.3×10-10。在测试周期内,自动锁定后的探测光与耦合光展现出良好的频率稳定性,其稳定度指标满足里德堡原子微波测量系统的典型工作需求,验证了所提基于光谱峰距离的峰识别算法的可靠性。

     

    Microwave measurement technology based on Rydberg atoms has attracted extensive attention due to its advantages of broad bandwidth, small-size probe, and high sensitivity. Automatic frequency stabilization of laser systems is a key link to improve the automation level and response speed of atomic microwave measurement systems. However, most existing systems rely on manual operation to achieve laser frequency locking, and research on automatic frequency stabilization of dual-wavelength lasers for atomic microwave measurement is still insufficient. This paper proposes a peak recognition algorithm based on spectral peak distance, which realizes accurate positioning of target peaks in saturated absorption spectroscopy and electromagnetically induced transparency spectroscopy. Using these peaks as frequency references, we directly drive the automatic frequency stabilization closed loop of lasers, thereby completing fully automatic locking of both probe light and coupling light frequencies. The measurement results show that the automatic frequency locking takes 5.55 seconds for the probe light and 13.9 seconds for the coupling light. The second-order frequency stability of the probe light reaches the 10-10 level, with a minimum Allan deviation of 1.1×10-10 at an averaging time of 32 seconds. The second-order frequency stability of the coupling light is also at the level, with a minimum Allan deviation of 1.1×10-10 at an averaging time of 16 seconds. During the test period, the automatically locked probe light and coupling light exhibit excellent frequency stability, whose stability indicators meet the typical operational requirements of Rydberg atom microwave measurement systems, verifying the reliability of the proposed spectral peak distance-based peak recognition algorithm.
