Measurement of the probe Stark shift of the 87Sr optical lattice clock using the frequency modulation spectroscopy


Abstract in English

With the uncertainty of the optical clocks improving to the order of 10-18, the probe light used to detect the clock transition has demonstrated nonnegligible Stark shift, provoking to precisely evaluate this shift. Here, we demonstrate a frequency modulation technique to realize a large measurement lever arm of the probe Stark shift with no cost of the measurement accuracy of the interleaved stabilization method. This frequency-modulated spectrum is theoretical described and experimental verified. The probe Stark shift coefficient of the 87Sr optical lattice clock is experimentally determined as -(45.97+/-3.51) Hz/(W/cm2) using this frequency modulation spectroscopy.
