A reliable cw Lyman-α laser source for future cooling of antihydrogen

  • 1. Johannes Gutenberg-Universität, Institut für Physik (Germany)

Description

We demonstrate a reliable continuous-wave (cw) laser source at the 1 S–2 P transition in (anti)hydrogen at 121.56 nm (Lyman-α) based on four-wave sum-frequency mixing in mercury. A two-photon resonance in the four-wave mixing scheme is essential for a powerful cw Lyman-α source and is well investigated.
