Determination of thes-Wave Scattering Length and theC6van der Waals Coefficient ofYb174

Abstract: We report photoassociation spectroscopy of 174Yb for the 1S(0)-1P1 transition at 1 microK, where only the s-wave scattering state contributes to the spectra. The wave function of the s-wave scattering state is obtained from the photoassociation efficiency, and we determine that the C6 potential coefficient is 2300+/-250 a.u. and the s-wave scattering length is 5.53+/-0.11 nm. Based on these parameters, we discuss the scattering properties of s- and d-wave states.

“…The spectra at T = 100 µK and 1 mK clearly show the influence of the d-wave reso- nance. This resonance had a crucial role in the correct interpretation of photoassociation spectra near the resonance transition 1 S 0 − 3 P 1 and in the determination of the scattering length for this isotope [58]. When the spectrum is dominated by the features due to the ground state d-wave, the intensity ratio of the J e = 3 and J e = 1 features should be 3/2 from Eq.…”

“…In this model the line-strength and excitation energy for the resonant excitation energy are set to experimental values. The line strength, 17.25 (7), was taken as the average of the two photoassociation line strengths [56,57] and its uncertainty was dervied from the difference of the two values and the quoted uncertainty of Ref. [57].…”
