Detection of the clock transition in thulium atoms by using repump laser radiation

A population transfer from the upper level of the clock transition in thulium atoms to the ground level is demonstrated by using radiation with a wavelength of 402 nm. The method for detecting the clock transition excitation that is not affected by technical fluctuations of the number of atoms in an optical lattice is investigated. The hyperfine splitting of the |4f{sup 12}({sup 3}F{sub 2})5d{sub 5/2} 6s{sup 2}; J = 7/2〉 level in the thulium atom is measured to be 1480(9) MHz. The suggested method for population transfer can be applied to both the hyperfine components of the clock transition intended for compensating Zeeman effect in a thulium optical clock. (paper)

Nanodiamonds with SiV colour centres for quantum technologies

Properties of silicon-vacancy (SiV) colour centres in ultra-nanosize diamonds are studied. Nanodiamonds are obtained at a high temperature and pressure, which induced transformations in mixtures of organic and hetero-organic compounds without metal-catalysts. The size distribution of grown nanodiamonds is determined by the methods of transmission electron microscopy and atomic-force microscopy, as well as by using the model of phonon spatial localisation. In addition, Raman spectra of various nanodiamonds and luminescence properties of SiV-centres are investigated. (laser applications and other topics in quantum electronics)

Rabi spectroscopy of the clock transition in thulium atoms in a one-dimensional optical lattice

The clock transition at a wavelength of 1.14 μm in thulium atoms in an optical lattice in the Lamb – Dick regime is studied. The capture of thulium atoms makes it possible to suppress completely both the transition broadening due to the first-order Doppler effect and the shift of the transition frequency caused by the recoil effect. The excitation spectra of sideband oscillation frequencies and Rabi oscillations of population between the clock transition levels upon resonance excitation are investigated. (paper)
