An optical clock based on a single trapped 199Hg+ ion.
Microwave atomic clocks have been the de facto standards for precision time and frequency metrology over the past 50 years, finding widespread use in basic scientific studies, communications, and navigation. However, with its higher operating frequency, an atomic clock based on an optical transition can be much more stable. We demonstrate an all-optical atomic clock referenced to the 1.064-peta...
متن کاملThe 199 Hg + single ion optical clock : recent progress
We report on work directed toward the systematic evaluation of an optical frequency standard based on the S1/2–D5/2 transition of a single, laser-cooled, trapped 199Hg+ ion, whose resonance frequency is 1.06 × 1015 Hz. For the purpose of the evaluation, two 199Hg+ standards have been constructed. In the cooling-laser system built for the second standard, an injection-locking scheme has been app...
متن کاملTrapped-ion quantum logic gates based on oscillating magnetic fields.
Oscillating magnetic fields and field gradients can be used to implement single-qubit rotations and entangling multiqubit quantum gates for trapped-ion quantum information processing (QIP). With fields generated by currents in microfabricated surface-electrode traps, it should be possible to achieve gate speeds that are comparable to those of optically induced gates for realistic distances betw...
متن کاملSpectroscopy using quantum logic.
We present a general technique for precision spectroscopy of atoms that lack suitable transitions for efficient laser cooling, internal state preparation, and detection. In our implementation with trapped atomic ions, an auxiliary "logic" ion provides sympathetic laser cooling, state initialization, and detection for a simultaneously trapped "spectroscopy" ion. Detection is achieved by applying...
متن کاملSingle quantum dot states measured by optical modulation spectroscopy
Using optical modulation spectroscopy, we report the direct observation of absorption lines from excitons localized in GaAs single quantum dot potentials. The data provide a measurement of the linewidth, resonance energy, and oscillator strength of the transitions, and show that states which decay primarily by nonradiative processes can be directly probed using this technique. The experiments e...
