Time sequence of an experimental circle. ε± denotes the time sequence of signal light, which shows that the signal pulse is stored at the j-th storage trial. C, P, and B0 denote the time sequences of the controlling light, pumping light, and guiding magnetic field, respectively. τM is the MOT-on time interval; τd = 10 μs is the waiting time for MOT magnetic field decaying to zero. τP = 5 μs is the atomic preparation time in the first trial. TP = 100 ns is the time window of the atomic preparation in the j-th (j > 1) trial. TW = TR = 100 ns and TS = 200 ns are the writing, reading, and waiting windows, respectively.
