This project focuses on developing a solid-state nuclear clock using Thorium-229, which can be manipulated with lasers. By employing nuclear quadrupole resonance spectroscopy, the project aims to achieve precise readouts of nuclear states, potentially advancing timekeeping technology.
The low-energy excited state of the Thorium-229 (229Th) nucleus has fascinated researchers for decades.
With excitation energy of only a few eV, it is the only known nuclear isomeric state accessible to laser manipulation.
This system opens up many novel applications, ranging from tests of variations of the fundamental constants to technological implementations as a nuclear clock.
While the exact excitation energy of the 229Th isomer remains unknown, significant progress has been made in constra…
