Precision spectroscopy technique for dipole allowed transitions in laser cooled ions
Amy Gardner, Kevin Sheridan, William Groom +2
In this paper we present a technique for the precise measurement of electric dipole allowed transitions in trapped ions. By applying a probe and a cooling laser in quick succession…
All-Optical Broadband Excitation of the Motional State of Trapped Ions
Kevin Sheridan, Nicolas Seymour-Smith, Amy Gardner +1
We have developed a novel all-optical broadband scheme for exciting, amplifying and measuring the secular motion of ions in a radio frequency trap. Oscillation induced by optical e…
All-optical ion generation for ion trap loading
Kevin Sheridan, Wolfgang Lange, Matthias Keller
We have investigated the all-optical generation of ions by photo-ionisation of atoms generated by pulsed laser ablation. A direct comparison between a resistively heated oven sourc…
Weighing of trapped ion crystals and its applications
Kevin Sheridan, Matthias Keller
We have developed a novel scheme to measure the secular motion of trapped ions. Employing pulsed excitation and analysis of the fluorescence of laser cooled ions, we have measured…
