Quantum measurements of spin in alkali atoms and bio-molecules
Abstract
This dissertation describes the results of the research work done by author at the Laboratory of Quantum Science and Technology. In Part I we report on the experimental observation and theoretical justification of a novel effect, the transfer of spin noise from one atomic species to another, through the mechanism of spin exchange. Essentially, we extend the foundational studies of spin exchange into the deeper layer of quantum fluctuations. The signature of spin noise exchange is an increase of the total spin noise power at low magnetic fields where the two-species spin noise resonances overlap. We will demonstrate experimentally and prove theoretically that the total spin noise power of a two-species spin ensemble like 85 Rb - 87 Rb, exhibits a counter-intuitive dependence on the applied magnetic field. This is the experimental signature of spin noise exchange. This new effect is observable when the two atomic species have overlapping spin resonances. The Part II is about the dynamics ...
