4 Laser cooling of Lanthanides Electronic structure of lanthanides (Yb, Dy, Er, Tm) is similar to alkali-earth elements (Ca, Sr, Mg) due to a closed outer electronic s-shell. Laser cooling of lanthanides is more challenging because of the absence of closed strong cooling transitions. All of strong transitions possess decay channels. Requirements for an efficient laser cooling transition: strong rate > 10 7 s -1 cycled accessible for laser sources with a power of > 1 mw

6 Applications Very recently a significant progress in laser cooling and trapping of some lanthanides, including hollow-shell ones, is achieved. They are intensively studied and successfully implemented in precision spectroscopy and optical frequency metrology study of interactions in quantum regime, study of quantum gases

9 Hollow-shell Lanthanides Vacancies in the hollow 4f-shell (e.g. Er, Dy, Tm) provide big magnetic moment in the ground state. Feshbach resonance in Er Magnetic moment of Dy equals 10 m B, of Er - 6m B. Strong dipole-dipole interactions between ground state atoms. Dipoleinteracting condensates and quantum simulators. M.

12 Shielding of the 4f shell levels 2 6s Tm 4 n f Because of the closed 6s 2 shell, the inner shells are shielded to the external perturbations. The shileding was first demonstrated experimentally by E.B. Alexandrov in 1983 collisions He J. Doyle at al. measured for He-Tm collisions (Nature, 2004) in el For Tm-Tm collisions in specific magnetic state the shielding disappears (PRA, 2010) E.B.Aleksandrov et al., Opt. Spektrosk., 54, 3, (1983) C.I. Hancox et al. Nature 431, 281 (2004) C.B.Connolly et al., Phys. Rev. A 81, (2010) 5
13 The M1 transition in Tm atom Spectroscopy on the ground state sublevels in lanthanides is not yet performed Thulium: = 1.14 mm, ~ 1 Hz - suppression of the external electric fields perturbations - small black-body shift - loading in the optical lattice with small perturbation of - strong -dependency f 2 Ry the clock transition

33 Intermediate conclusions - Tm atoms are trapped in an optical lattice and prepared for spectroscopy of clock transition at 1.14 mm - Temperature of atoms is still too high for efficient recapture into the shallow lattice => further cooling is necessary - Narrow line lasers for second stage cooling (530.7 nm) and studying of metrological transition (1.14 mm) - Increasing of the number of atoms
