Magic wavelength at 477 nm for the strontium clock transition

We report the experimental measurement of a magic wavelength at 476.823 62(8) nm for the ${}^{88}\mathrm{Sr}\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}5{s}^{2}{\phantom{\rule{0.1em}{0ex}}}^{1}{\mathrm{S}}_{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}5s5p{\phantom{\rule{0.1em}{0ex}}}^{3}{\mathrm{P}}_{0}$ clock transition. The magic wavelength is determined through an ac Stark shift spectroscopy of atoms in an optical dipole trap. The value is in reasonable agreement with the theoretical prediction, differing by 0.061(54) nm. This magic wavelength, being shorter than the commonly used one at 813 nm, will be important for applications such as Bragg-pulse matter-wave interferometry involving both clock states. This work also paves the way for quantum simulation with a shorter lattice constant.
