Hertz-Level Clock Spectroscopy of 171 Yb Atoms in a One-Dimensional Optical Lattice

Meng-Jiao Zhang, Hui Liu, Xi Zhang +4 more

An ultra-narrow spectroscopy of clock transition with high signal-to-noise ratio is crucial for a high-performance atomic optical clock. We present a detailed study about how to obtain a Hertz-level clock transition spectrum of 171 Yb atoms. About 4 × 10 4 atoms are loaded into a one-dimensional optical lattice with a magic wavelength of 759 nm, and a long lifetime of 3 s is realized with the lattice power of 1 W. Through normalized shelving detection and spin polarization, 171 Yb clock spectroscopy with a Fourier-limited linewidth of 5.9 Hz is obtained. Our work represents a key step toward an ytterbium optical clock with high frequency stability.

We demonstrate the spectroscopy of171Yb atoms confined in a one-dimensional (1D) optical lattice and the absolute frequency measurement of the clock transition. The absolute frequency of the1S0(F = 1/2) -3P0(F = 1/2) clock transition in171Yb is determined to be 518 295 836 590 864(28) Hz with respect to the SI second.

A transportable optical lattice clock using 171Yb

We present first results on the spectroscopy of the1S0→3P0transition at 578nm in a transportable171Yb optical lattice clock. With the Yb atoms confined in a one-dimensional optical lattice, we have observed linewidths below 200 Hz, limited by saturation broadening. Currently the system is being upgraded towards full clock operation and use of more compact and robust subsystems.
