Abstract

Summary form only given. Single trapped ions have applications not only in frequency standards and metrology but also in studying fundamental physics and implementing quantum computation. In this proceeding, we report our initial experimental results with single trapped Yb/sup +/ ions. We have observed resolved micromotion-sideband spectra in an allowed transition and demonstrated that it can be conveniently used in micromotion reduction. In addition, we have made lifetime measurements in the two metastable D states.
