Photoassociation measurements to evaluate collisional shifts in strontium and prospects for clock spectroscopy with ytterbium molecules

Marcin Bober, Mateusz Borkowski, Piotr Morzyński +4 more

We report on a photoassociation approach to determine the scattering lengths for1So-3Po and3Po-3Po cold collisions. Positions of molecular states, connected with asymptotes of1So+3S1 and3Po+3S1 states could be determined using a tunable 679 nm laser and atoms trapped in an optical lattice. This approach allows an indirect calculation (without direct probing of1S0-3P0 molecular state) of the effect of cold collisions on an optical atomic clock operation. We also propose to realize a molecular clock with bosonic ytterbium molecules.

Prospects and experimental progress of an ytterbium optical lattice clock

Tai Hyun Yoon, C. Y. Park

We discuss the prospects of an ytterbium (Yb) optical lattice clock based on theoretical estimates of various systematic effects for clock operations confined to the optical lattice potential satisfying the Lamb-Dicke condition. Then, we present our experimental progress towards the realization of the proposed Yb optical lattice clock. We report the first efficient trapping of rare-earth Yb atoms with a high-power violet laser diode.
