Intensities of inter-Stark transitions in YAG-Yb3+ crystals

Gagik G. Demirkhanyan

The line strengths of indirect electric dipole and magnetic dipole transitions between Stark sublevels of the Yb 3+ impurity ion in a YAG crystal are calculated. The intensity’s parameters are determined, and the spectroscopic characteristics of inter-Stark transitions (probabilities of spontaneous transitions and radiative lifetimes of Stark sublevels of excited multiplet, fluorescence branching ratios, transition cross sections, and absorption coefficients) are computed. Quantitative calculations of spectroscopic parameters revealed a quite reasonable agreement with experimental data.

Precision Spectroscopy in Yb+ ions

Jialiang Yu, Kai C. Grensemann, Chih-Han Yeh +5 more

We report on our progress on multi-ion spectroscopy with Yb+ions. We first characterized the spatial homogeneity of the magnetic- and the rf-field. Subsequently, to equalize the immense AC Stark shifts of the individual ions in a Coulomb crystal, we utilize a holographic phase plate to convert the Gaussian beam into a flat-top shape. These efforts enable us to excite an 8-ion crystal (172Yb+) on the highly forbidden electric octupole transition. Using 173Yb+ with reduced AC Stark shift, the same beam profile could support the multi-ion operation of 20 ions. This paves the way for future multi-ion optical clocks.

Two-photon transitions of Gd3+in cubic Cs2NaGdCl6

Mohamed Bouazaoui, B. Jacquier, C. Linarès +1 more

Two-photon absorption spectroscopy is used to investigate the 8 S 7/2 → 6 P J , 6 I 7/2 transitions of Gd 3+ ions in the cubic elpasolite Cs 2 NaGdCl 6 . The Gd 3+ ions occupy a centro-symmetric site (O h ); so the odd terms of the crystal field vanish and the pure electric dipole transitions should not be observed in one-photon experiments. As a consequence the electric dipole allowed two-photon transitions involving the 6 I 7/2 and 6 P 3/2 excited states are well observed in contrast with their weakness in the one-photon spectrum. Furthermore the magnetic dipole character of the transitions to the 6 P 5/2 and 6 P 7/2 levels is confirmed. The occurrence of the one-photon transition to 6 P 3/2 is tentatively explained by the J mixing involving the 6 P 7/2 excited state. A qualitative analysis of the relative intensities of the transitions to the 6 P J and 6 I 7/2 levels is presented.
