Semiclasical model of magneto-optical trap depth

We report the results of trap depth calculations based on the semi-classical theory of interaction of light field with atom in magneto-optical trap (MOT). In our model of magneto-optical trap we take into account Zeeman shift of ground and excited states in local magnetic field and only Doppler cool...

Zusammenfassung:We report the results of trap depth calculations based on the semi-classical theory of interaction of light field with atom in magneto-optical trap (MOT). In our model of magneto-optical trap we take into account Zeeman shift of ground and excited states in local magnetic field and only Doppler cooling force are considered. The calculated trap depth has been compared with value of trap depth estimated from experimental results for 7Li.
