Research of Cold Atomic Beam Interferometer Signal Detection TechnologyAbstractWith the rapid development of atom optics technology, atomic interferometers gradually become a hot topic in the field of precision measurement. Atomic interferometers have a wide range of application prospects, because of its high sensitivity, absolute measurement, long-term stability inherent advantages in inertial navigation and basic physics research and other fields.Atomic light source is one of the basic elements of atomic interferometer, its performance directly determines the contrast of atomic interference fringes and signal-to-noise ratio, which directly affects the accuracy of measurement. The performance of atomic light source is tested and characterized, and the high performance atomic light source is optimized for interference. At the same time, the noise of atomic energy state measurement is the basis of high precision atomic interference measurement.Based on the atomic beam characteristics detection theory, using cold atom interferometry gyroscope as the research object, we designed the corresponding detection system of the atomic beam characteristics. The whole detection system is composed of hardware and software components, mainly consists of three parts: optical system, detection device and software system. In the optical system, in order to obtain the laser source with high stability, we designed a special laser control system. The control system consists of a current driver and a temperature controller. Current is adjustable in the range of 200mA, the current control accuracy up to 1uA, The AC voltage noise RMS within 3-100KHz bandwidth is less than 300nA.The temperature controller uses highly integrated MAX1978 as the main control chip, driving the Thermoelectric Cooler (TEC) for temperature compensation, long-term temperature drift is less than 2mK. The system can be used to drive the DFB external cavity lasers and DBR lasers. It was used to drive an external cavit
