摘要
We report the results of experimental investigations aimed at creation of the optical frequency standard based on magnesium atoms cooled and localised in a magneto-optical trap (MOT). An experimentally realised MOT for magnesium made it possible to obtain a cloud comprising similar to 10(6)-10(7) atoms at a temperature of 3-5 mK. The results of ultra-high resolution spectroscopy of intercombination S-1(0)-P-3(1) transition for Mg atom are presented, the resonances in time-domain separated optical fields with the half-width of Gamma = 500 Hz are recorded, which corresponds to the Q-factor of the reference line Q = v/Delta v similar to 1.3 x 10(12).
