Optical Lattice Laser

Jingbiao Chen, Xuzong Chen

Abstract: Atoms with narrow-linewidth transition trapped within the Lamb-Dick regime of optical lattice are proposed be used as laser gain medium to build a laser. The gain medium atoms can be the alkaline-earth species, Magnesium, Calcium, and Strontium, including Ytterbium. These atoms possess promising super-narrow optical clock transitions, but here, this clock transition is proposed to be used as the lasing transition of the output laser. This optical lattice laser with expected super-narrow linewidth will be an active optical clock with high accuracy and stability.
