Lifetime measurement of the ^3P_2 metastable state of strontium atoms
Masami Yasuda, Hidetoshi Katori
We have measured the lifetime of the 5s5p ^3P_2 metastable state of strontium atoms by magneto-optically trapping the decayed atoms to the ground state, which allowed sensitive det…
Spectroscopy of the Clock Transition of Sr in an Optical Lattice
Masao Takamoto, Hidetoshi Katori
We report on the spectroscopy of the clock transition of atoms (natural linewidth of 1 mHz) trapped in a one-dimen…
Ultrastable Optical Clock with Neutral Atoms in an Engineered Light Shift Trap
Hidetoshi Katori, Masao Takamoto, V. G. Pal'chikov +1
An ultrastable optical clock based on neutral atoms trapped in an optical lattice is proposed. Complete control over the light shift is achieved by employing the $5s^2 {}^1S_0 \to…
Recoil-free spectroscopy of neutral Sr atoms in the Lamb-Dicke regime
Tetsuya Ido, Hidetoshi Katori
We have demonstrated a recoil-free spectroscopy on the transition of strontium atoms confined in a one-dimensional optical lattice. By investigating the wavelengt…
