Optical lattice polarization effects on hyperpolarizability of atomic clock transitions.
The light-induced frequency shift due to hyperpolarizability (i.e., terms of second-order in intensity) is studied for a forbidden optical transition, J = 0 --> J = 0. A simple universal dependence on the field ellipticity is obtained. This result allows minimization of the second-order light shift with respect to the field polarization for optical lattices operating at a magic wavelength (at w...
متن کاملHyperpolarizability effects in a Sr optical lattice clock.
We report the observation of a higher-order frequency shift due to the trapping field in a (87)Sr optical lattice clock. We show that, at the magic wavelength of the lattice, where the first-order term cancels, the higher-order shift will not constitute a limitation to the fractional accuracy of the clock at a level of 10(-18). This result is achieved by operating the clock at very high trappin...
متن کاملClock shifts of optical transitions in ultracold atomic gases.
We calculate the shift, due to interatomic interactions, of an optical transition in an atomic Fermi gas trapped in an optical lattice, as in recent experiments of Campbell et al. [Science 324, 360 (2009)]. Using a pseudospin formalism to describe the density matrix of atoms, we derive a Bloch equation which incorporates both spatial inhomogeneity of the probe laser field and interatomic intera...
متن کاملOptical Cavity for the Strontium Lattice Atomic Clock
The Sr lattice atomic clock in Jun Ye’s group has been experiencing frequency shifts due to the interaction between the Sr atoms in the optical trap. One possible solution is to change the optical trap in the system such that the Sr atom density, and therefore the interaction between the atoms, is reduced. For this project a test system is necessary to test the vacuum chamber viewports, which i...
متن کاملOptical lattice induced light shifts in an yb atomic clock.
We present an experimental study of the lattice-induced light shifts on the (1)S(0) --> (3)P(0) optical clock transition (nu(clock) approximately 518 THz) in neutral ytterbium. The "magic" frequency nu(magic) for the 174Yb isotope was determined to be 394 799 475(35) MHz, which leads to a first order light shift uncertainty of 0.38 Hz. We also investigated the hyperpolarizability shifts due to ...
