Abstract

The frequency of the /sup 2/S/sub 1/2/(F=0,m/sub F/=0)-/sup 2/F/sub 7/2/(F=3,m/sub F/=0) transition in a single, trapped, laser cooled ion of /sup 171/Yb/sup +/ has been measured with an improved narrow probe laser and a femtosecond laser frequency comb generator. Our best estimate of the frequency is 642 121 496 772.3 /spl plusmn/ 0.6 kHz by comparison with earlier measurements. The uncertainty is limited by measurement statistics and by the ac Stark shift.
