Spectral purity transfer between optical wavelengths at the level
Daniele Nicolodi, Béengère Argence, Wei Zhang +3
Ultra-stable lasers and optical frequency combs have been the enabling technologies for the tremendous progress of precise optical spectroscopy in the last ten years. To improve la…
Creation of Quantum-Degenerate Gases of Ytterbium in a Compact 2D-/3D-MOT Setup
Sören Dörscher, Alexander Thobe, Bastian Hundt +5
We report on the first experimental setup based on a 2D-/3D-MOT scheme to create both Bose-Einstein condensates and degenerate Fermi gases of several ytterbium isotopes. Our setup…
Experimenting an optical second with strontium lattice clocks
R. Le Targat, L. Lorini, Y. Le Coq +17
Progress in realizing the SI second had multiple technological impacts and enabled to further constraint theoretical models in fundamental physics. Caesium microwave fountains, rea…
