This study achieved the generation of high-power, narrow-linewidth laser radiation for laser cooling and spectroscopy of cadmium and strontium atoms. Utilizing VECSEL frequency doubling, laser outputs at 457.75nm and 460.86nm were successfully produced.
High-power and narrow-linewidth laser light is a vital tool for atomic physics, being used for example in laser cooling and trapping and precision spectroscopy. Here we produce Watt-level laser radiation at 457.75 nm and 460.86 nm of respective relevance for the cooling transitions of cadmium and strontium atoms. This is achieved via the frequency doubling of a kHz-linewidth vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting laser (VECSEL), which is based on a novel gain chip design enabling lasing at > 2 W in the 915-928 nm region. Following an additional doubling stage, spectroscopy of the S-1(0) -> P-1(1) cadmium transition at 228.87 nm is performed on an atomic beam, with all the transitions from all eight natural isotopes observed in a single continuous sweep of more than 4 GHz in the deep ultraviolet. The absolute value of the transition frequency of Cd-114 and the isotope shifts relative to this transition are determined, with values for some of these shifts provided for the first time.
