摘要:

本文报道了~(87)Sr中强禁戒5s 21 S 0 - 5s 5 p3 P0跃迁的首次直接激发。其频率为429 228 004 235(20)kHz。共振激光在磁光阱(MOT)中产生一个小的泄漏:原子积累到亚稳态3 P0状态并逃离捕获过程,导致MOT荧光的可检测减少。该谱线的自然宽度为10^{-3} Hz,可用于新一代的光频标,该光频标使用无光移偶极阱中捕获的原子。

英文摘要:

We report the first direct excitation of the strongly forbidden 5s2 1S0-5s5p 3P0 transition in 87Sr. Its frequency is 429 228 004 235 (20) kHz. A resonant laser creates a small leak in a magneto-optical trap (MOT): atoms build up to the metastable 3P0 state and escape the trapping process, leading to a detectable decrease in the MOT fluorescence. This line has a natural width of 10^{-3} Hz and can be used for a new generation of optical frequency standards using atoms trapped in a light shift free dipole trap.
