摘要
We measure the ac Stark shifts of the S-5(1/2), F = 2 -> 5P(3/2), F' = 3 transitions of individual optically trapped Rb-87 atoms using a nondestructive detection technique that allows us to measure the fluorescent signal of one and the same atom for over 60 s. These measurements allow the efficient and rapid characterization of single-atom traps that is required for many coherent quantum information protocols. Although this method is demonstrated using a single-atom trap, the concept is readily extended to resolvable atomic arrays.
