High-Flux Cold Ytterbium Atomic Beam Source Using Two-Dimensional Laser Cooling with Intercombination Transition

Toshiyuki Hosoya, Ryotaro Inoue, Tomoya Sato +1

We demonstrate a high-flux and low transverse temperature atomic beam of ytterbium by applying two-dimensional cooling using the ${}^1{\mathrm{S}}_0\text{-}{}^3{\mathrm{P}}_1$ intercom…
