Frequency measurement of the super(2)S sub(1/2) sub(_ 2)D sub(3/2) electric quadrupole transition in a single sub(171)yb+ ion

We report on precision laser spectroscopy of the super(2)S sub(1/2)(F = 0) sub(_2)D sub(3/2) (F = 2, super(m)F = 0) clock transition in a single ion of super(171)Yb+. The absolute value of the transition frequency, determined using an optical frequency comb referenced to a hydrogen maser, is 6883589...
