Test der Quantenelektrodynamik und Metrologie der Teilchenmassen mittels hochauflösender Laserspektroskopie an Wasserstoffmolekülen: das Molekülion HD+
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
In this work, we have demonstrated a signicant improvement in the resolution of spectroscopy of molecular ions in ion traps. We believe that this represents a milestone in the eld. We have used the method to perform the most precise measurement of a particle mass by molecular spectroscopy, to date. We also produced the very important theoretical result that the spectroscopy of the hydrogen molecular ions has the potential to reach the 10^−17 inaccuracy level, which is of interest in the eld of test of constancy of fundamental constants. We achieved state-of-the-art results concerning the frequency stabilization and ultra-narrow linewidth of quantum cascade lasers. One additional outcome is the insight that there are excellent prospects for increasing resolution and accuracy of the rotational spectroscopy further.
