Photo-Induced Quenching of the 229Th Isomer in a Solid-State Host
J. E. S. Terhune, R. Elwell, H. B. Tran Tan +5
The population dynamics of the 229Th isomeric state is studied in a solid-state host under laser illumination. A photoquenching process is observed, where off-resonant vacuum-ultra…
Bottom-up approach to scalable growth of molecules capable of optical cycling
Guanming Lao, Taras Khvorost, Antonio Macias +10
Gas-phase molecules capable of repeatable, narrow-band spontaneous photon scattering are prized for direct laser cooling and quantum state detection. Recently, large molecules inco…
229Th-doped nonlinear optical crystals for compact solid-state clocks
H. W. T. Morgan, R. Elwell, J. E. S. Terhune +5
The recent laser excitation of the 229Th isomeric transition in a solid-state host opens the door for a portable solid-state nuclear optical clock. However, at present the vacuum-u…
Laser excitation of the Th nuclear isomeric transition in a solid-state host
R. Elwell, Christian Schneider, Justin Jeet +6
LiSrAlF crystals doped with Th are used in a laser-based search for the nuclear isomeric transition. Two spectroscopic features near the nuclear transition energy are o…
