Optical and spin inhomogeneous linewidths in 171Yb3+:Y2SiO5

Single crystals of 171Yb3+:Y2SiO5 are promising systems for quantum technologies as an efficient optical to spin interface. This is due to the long optical and spin coherence lifetimes, or narrow homogeneous linewidths, observed in this material at zero magnetic field. Inhomogeneous linewidths are a...
