If mapping the phase shift for each T with a series of measurements, the extraction time is limited by the protocol of each T measurement, and therefore increases dramatically when doing fine mapping with a small step of T. Here we present a new method for rapid extraction of the phase shift via phase demodulation. By using this method, the systematic shifts can be mapped though the whole interference area. This method enables quick diagnostics of the potential cause of the phase shift in specific time. We demonstrate experimentally that this method is effective for the evaluation of the systematic errors of the cold atomic gravimeter. The systematic phase error induced by the quadratic Zeeman effect in the free-falling region is extracted by this method. The measured results correspond well with the theoretic prediction and also agree with the results obtained by the fringe fitting method for each T.展开更多

Important parameters, such as the sample pH, the concentration and volume of eluent, sample flow rate and volume, and interference of coexisting ions, were investigated. The obtained results indicated that proposed method possessed an excellent analytical performance. The linear range, the detection limit, and precison (RSD) were 1–100 ng/mL (R(2) = 0.9993), 0.32 ng/mL and 2.88%, respectively. The results showed that copper could be adsorbed quantitatively on the pretreated MWCNTs with potassium permanganate, and proposed method was very useful in the monitoring of copper in the environment.展开更多

In order to facilitate efficient and reliable detection of low-frequency fields via Rydberg atoms, we designed and implemented a heterodyne method based on the linear response to external signals under the condition of Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT). Instead of relying on observing changes in the absorption of light by Rydberg atoms, our method focuses on the phase modulation effect on the probe laser induced by low-frequency fields via the Rydberg EIT mechanism and utilizes a special demodulation process to accurately retrieve signals including both amplitude and phase. The general principles of our method apply to both electric and magnetic fields, and it is even possible to realize a combination of both functionalities in the same apparatus. In particular, we experimentally demonstrate the full cycle of operations with respect to both cases. In measuring low-frequency electric fields,we discover that the Rydberg dipole–dipole interaction among atoms induces a linear superposition of Rydberg states with different angular momentum, generating a first-order response corresponding to the signature of the linear Stark effect. As Rydberg atoms have excellent coupling strengths with electric fields, our results indicate that our method can hopefully achieve high-precision performance for practical tasks in the future.展开更多

Dithizone was dissolved with alcohol and loaded on the surface of nano-sized TiO2 powders by stirring. The static adsorption behavior of Hg^2+on the dithizone-modified nanoparficles was investigated in detail. It was found that excellent adsorption ratio for Hg^2+ could be obtained in the pH range of 7-8 with an oscillation time of 15 rain, and a 5 mL of 3.5 mol·L^-1 HCI solution could quantitatively elute Hg^2+ from nanometer TiO2 powder. Common coexisting ions caused no obvious influence on the determination of mercury. The mechanisms for the adsorption and desorption were discussed. The detection limit (30) for Hg^2+ was calculated to be 5 ng·L^-1. The proposed method was applied to the determination of Hg^2+ in a mineral water sample and a Zhujiang River water sample. By the standard addition method, the average recoveries were found to be 94.4%-108.3% with RSD (n = 5) of 2.9%-3.5%.展开更多

Several parameters such as type, concentration and volume of eluent, pH of the sample solution, flow rate of extraction and volume of the sample were evaluated. The effect of a variety of ions on preconcentration and recovery was also investigated. At pH = 7.4 and 1.0 mol?L–1 HCl eluting them, lead ions were recovered quantitatively. The limit of detection (LOD) defined as 3Sbl was determined to be 8.1 μg L–1 for 500 mL of sample solution and eluted with 5 mL of 1.0 mol?L–1 HCl under optimum conditions. The accuracy and precision (RSD %) of the method were >90% and <10%, respectively. In the end, the proposed method was applied to a number of real sugar samples and the amount of lead was determined by spiking a known concentration of lead into the solution.展开更多

The method is based on complex formation on the surface of the ENVI-18 DISK^TM disks followed by stripping of the retained species by minimum amounts of appropriate organic solvents. The elution is efficient and quantitative. The effects of potential interfering ions, pH, ligand amount, stripping solvent, and sample flow rate were also investigated. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the break-through volume was found to about be 1000 mL providing a preconcentration factor of 500. The maximum capacity of the disks was found to be (389±4) μg for Cu^2+. The limit of detection of the proposed method is 5 ng per liter. The method was applied to the extraction and recovery of copper in different water samples.展开更多

After loading a green MOT of ^(171)Yb atoms, the phase shift is obtained with a two-color Mach–Zehnder interferometer by means of ±45 MHz detuning with respect to the ^(1)S_(0)–^(1)P_(1) transition. We measured a phase shift of about 100 mrad corresponding to an atom count of around 5 × 10^(5). This demonstrates that it is possible to obtain the number of atoms without direct destructive measurement compared with the absorption imaging method. This scheme could be an important approach towards a high-precision lattice clock for clock operation through suppression of the impact of the Dick effect.展开更多
