摘要：

A system is described for the absolute frequency measurement of a laser source at 445 THz probing a narrow resonance of a trapped single ion of strontium. The 474-THz frequency from a laser referenced to an iodine-stabilized helium-neon laser and a known 29-THz frequency from a saturation-stabilized carbon dioxide laser are mixed in an AgGaS2 nonlinear crystal to synthesize the 445-THz radiation. A preliminary measurement of the Sr-88(+) 5s S-2(1/2)-4d D-2(5/2) center frequency yielded a frequency of 444 779 044.14 +/- 0.39 MHz (1 sigma). (C) 1996 Optical Society of America
