Clearly resolved secular sidebands on the /sup 2/S/sub 1/2/-/sup 2/D/sub 5/2/ 674-nm clock transition in a single trapped Sr/sup +/ ion

A prestabilized 674-nm diode laser has been narrowed by locking it to a high-finesse ultra-low-expansion cavity and kilohertz error signals have been observed. Lamb-Dicke confinement of single laser cooled Sr/sup +/ ions in a miniature rf trap has been demonstrated and micromotion reduction achieved. RF trap sidebands have been observed on the Sr/sup + 2/S/sub 1/2/-/sup 2/D/sub 5/2/ 674 mm clock transition. The transition frequency has been measured to be (444779043.98/spl plusmn/0.12) MHz (2/spl sigma/).
