高电荷态离子精细结构跃迁波长的精密测量不仅可以检验量子电动力学(quantum electrodynamics, QED)效应、电子关联效应等基本物理模型, 还能够为天体物理、聚变等离子体物理甚至高电荷态离子光钟等研究提供关键原子物理数据. 本工作基于复旦大学现代物理研究所的高温超导电子束离子阱(SH-HtscEBIT)装置, 搭建了一套新的光谱校刻系统, 并结合内校刻与外校刻的方法对其光谱波长测量的不确定度进行了评估, 新的光谱校刻系统在可见光波段引起的波长不确定度最低达到0.002 nm. 在此基础上, 使用SH-HtscEBIT装置结合新的校刻系统开展了Ar13+离子1s22s22p 2P1/2 —2P3/2磁偶极跃迁(M1)波长的精密测量, 实验测得该跃迁波长为(441.2567 ± 0.0026) nm, 是目前SH-HtscEBIT上测量精度最高的实验结果, 为下一步开展高电荷态离子超精细分裂和同位素位移等精密测量实验奠定了基础.The precise measurement of the transition wavelength of the fine structure of highly charged ions can not only test basic physical theories including the quantum electrodynamics effect and the electronic correlation effect but also provide key atomic data for astrophysics and fusion plasma physics. Furthermore, highly charged ions are considered as a potential candidate for optical clocks with extremely ultra-high precision. In this work, a new spectral calibration system is built in a high-temperature superconducting electron beam ion trap (SH-HtscEBIT) in the Institute of Modern Physics, Fudan University, and the uncertainty of its spectrum wavelength measurement is evaluated by combining internal and external calibrations. The minimum wavelength uncertainty caused by the new spectral calibration system in the visible light band reaches 0.002 nm. On this basis, the precise measurement of 2s22p 2P1/2-2P3/2 M1 transition wavelength for boron-like Ar13+ is performed at the SH-HtscEBIT by utilizing the new calibration system. The experimentally measured transition wavelength is (441.2567 ± 0.0026) nm. It is currently the experimental result with the highest measurement accuracy of spectroscopy of highly charged ions at the SH-HtscEBIT, which lays the foundation for the precise measurement of the hyperfine splitting and isotope shift of highly charged ions in the future experiments.
