AI 中文摘要

我们展示了对$^{138}\mathrm{Ba}^+$中约化电偶极矩矩阵元$\langle P_{1/2}\|r\|S_{1/2}\rangle$的高精度测量。通过比较非共振散射率和色散斯塔克位移测量,确定该矩阵元为$3.322\,7(12)$,对应$P_{1/2}$激发态辐射寿命为$7.866\,3(56)$纳秒。结合实验结果与先前的微分标量极化率模型,提取出静态值$\Delta\alpha_0(0) = -73.09(12)$原子单位。这一测定直接改进了黑体辐射频移评估,为原子结构计算提供严格基准,推动量子计量和基础物理高精度应用。

英文摘要

We present a high-precision measurement of the reduced electric-dipole matrix element $\langle P_{1/2}\|r\|S_{1/2}\rangle$ in $^{138}\mathrm{Ba}^+$. By comparing off-resonant scattering rates with dispersive Stark-shift measurements, we determine the matrix element to be $3.322\,7(12)$, corresponding to a $P_{1/2}$ excited-state radiative lifetime of $7.866\,3(56)$~ns. Combining our experimental results with a prior model for the differential scalar polarizability $Δα_0(ω)$, we extract the static value $Δα_0(0) = -73.09(12)$a.u. This determination directly improves the evaluation of the blackbody radiation (BBR) shift, minimizing a prominent systematic limitation in room-temperature $\mathrm{Ba}^+$ optical clock error budgets. These results provide a stringent benchmark for atomic-structure calculations and advance high-precision applications in quantum metrology and tests of fundamental physics.
