Measurement of the Yb I 1 S 0 - 1 P 1 transition frequency at 399 nm using an optical frequency comb
We determine the frequency of the Yb I S0 -P1 transition at 399 nm using an optical frequency comb. Although this transition was measured previously using an optical transfer cavity [D. Das et al., Phys. Rev. A 72, 032506 (2005)], recent work has uncovered significant errors in that method. We compare our result of 751 526 533.49 ± 0.33 MHz for the Yb isotope with those from the literature and ...
متن کاملPrecise measurements of UV atomic lines: Hyperfine structure and isotope shifts in the 398.8 nm line of Yb
– We demonstrate a technique for frequency measurements of UV transitions with sub-MHz precision. The frequency is measured using a ring-cavity resonator whose length is calibrated against a reference laser locked to the D2 line of Rb. We have used this to measure the 398.8 nm 1S0 ↔ P 1 line of atomic Yb. We report isotope shifts of all the seven stable isotopes, including the rarest isotope Yb...
متن کاملEfficient spectral hole-burning and atomic frequency comb storage in Nd3+:YLiF4
We present spectral hole-burning measurements of the (4)I9/2 → (4)F3/2 transition in Nd(3+):YLiF4. The isotope shifts of Nd(3+) can be directly resolved in the optical absorption spectrum. We report atomic frequency comb storage with an echo efficiency of up to 35% and a memory bandwidth of 60 MHz in this material. The interesting properties show the potential of this material for use in both q...
متن کاملCavity-enhanced optical frequency comb spectroscopy: application to human breath analysis.
Broad-bandwidth, high-spectral-resolution optical detection of human breath has identified multiple important biomarkers correlated with specific diseases and metabolic processes. This optical-frequency-comb-based breath analysis system comes with excellent performance in all criteria: high detection sensitivity, ability to identify and distinguish a large number of analytes, and simultaneous, ...
متن کاملOptical frequency comb generator using optical fiber loops with single-sideband modulation
This paper describes optical frequency comb generation using optical single-sideband modulation technique. We can obtain optical frequency shift using the singnal-sideband modulator consisting of four optical phase modulators, where the frequency shift is precisely equal to that of an rf-signal fed to the modulator. A series of optical spectral components can be generated by using an optical fi...
