Disorder-induced nuclear-transition doublet at nominally cubic Th sites

Andrei Derevianko

The Th nuclear clock transition is inhomogeneously broadened even at sites of nominally cubic symmetry, where the electric-field gradient of the ideal lattice vanishes. We…

Defect assignment of the clock site in

Daniel A. Rehn, Harry W. T. Morgan, Harris E. Mason +6

The performance of solid-state nuclear clocks depends sensitively on the microscopic environment of the thorium nucleus in the host crystal. Here we reassess the…

Suppression of differential light shifts in ground and metastable trapped-ion qubits

Drew Parks, Thomas Dellaert, Patrick McMillin +3

In the presence of a magnetic field, hyperfine clock qubits can acquire a vector differential light shift that can be tuned via polarization to suppress the total differential ligh…

Th Nuclear Spectroscopy in an Opaque Material: Laser-Based Conversion Electron Mössbauer Spectroscopy of ThO

Ricky Elwell, James E. S. Terhune, Christian Schneider +11

Here, we report the first demonstration of laser-induced conversion electron Mössbauer spectroscopy of the Th nuclear isomeric state, which provides the ability to probe th…

Host-dependent frequency offsets in Th nuclear clockwork

U. C. Perera, H. W. T. Morgan, Eric R. Hudson +1

Recent advances in laser excitation of the low-energy nuclear isomer transition in Th have opened avenues for developing nuclear clocks, a novel quantum technology with exc…

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…

Theory of internal conversion of the thorium-229 nuclear isomer in solid-state hosts

H. W. T. Morgan, H. B. Tran Tan, R. Elwell +3

Laser excitation of thorium-229 nuclei in doped wide bandgap crystals has been demonstrated recently, opening the possibility of developing ultrastable solid-state clocks and sensi…

thin films for solid-state nuclear clocks

Chuankun Zhang, Lars von der Wense, Jack F. Doyle +11

After nearly fifty years of searching, the vacuum ultraviolet Th nuclear isomeric transition has recently been directly laser excited [1,2] and measured with high spectrosc…

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…

Coupled-cluster calculations of properties of Boron atom as a monovalent system

H. Gharibnejad, A. Derevianko

We present relativistic coupled-cluster (CC) calculations of energies, magnetic-dipole hyperfine constants, and electric-dipole transition amplitudes for low-lying states of atomic…
