Kavli Affiliate: Nelson Darkwah Oppong| Summary:We present measurements of three distinctive state-(in)dependent wavelengths for the $^1textS_0-^3textP_0$ clock transition in $^174textYb$ atoms. Specifically, we determine two magic wavelengths at $652.281(21),$THz and $542.50205(19),$THz, where the differential light shift on the $^1textS_0-^3textP_0$ clock transition vanishes, and one tune-out wavelength at $541.8325(5),$THz, where the polarizability of the $^1textS_0$ ground state exhibits a zero crossing. The two new magic wavelengths are identified by spectroscopically interrogating cold $^174textYb$ atoms on the clock transition in a one-dimensional optical lattice. The ground-state tune-out wavelength is determined via a parametric heating scheme. With a simple empirical model, we then extrapolate the ground and excited state polarizability over a broad range of wavelengths in the visible spectrum.| Search Query:arXiv Query: search_query=au:”Oppong Nelson Darkwah”&id_list=&start=0&max_results=10Read More
