Hyperfine structure and homogeneous broadening inPr3+:KY(WO4)2

Abstract: As part of a search for suitable materials for coherent quantum operations, relaxation times and hyperfine structure of the 1 D 2 ͑1͒-3 H 4 ͑1͒ transition in Pr 3+ :KY͑WO 4 ͒ 2 (0.29 at. %) at 4 K have been obtained using photon-echo and spectral hole burning techniques. The homogeneous linewidth and the effect of excitationinduced dephasing were measured using two-pulse photon-echo techniques. Linewidths of 23.4± 1.0 and 17.6± 0.9 kHz were obtained in the absence and presence of an external magnetic field of … Show more

“…Recent spectroscopic studies report interest in other materials for quantum information including Pr 3 + :KY(WO 4 ) 2 [87], Pr 3 + :La 2 (WO 4 ) 3 [88], and Tm 3 + :LaAlO 3 [89]. The potential for lambda systems has been investigated theoretically for Pr 3 + :LiYF 4 [90].…”

“…As generally performed [13,21], the hyperfine structures were directly determined by recording the transmission hole spectra. Due to the presence of the inhomogeneous broadening, all the allowed transitions between the hyperfine levels of the ground and excited states are resonant with the frequency of the burning laser for some subset of ions and a pattern of side holes and anti-holes could thus be recorded.…”

“…A matched pair of electronically amplified photodiodes (Hamamatsu S1223) was then used for detecting the transmission hole spectrum and reference signal. A more detailed description can be found, for example, in [13].…”
