Abstract

We propose a method for EIT ground state cooling of ¹⁷¹Yb+ ion, which involves three light fields with detuning on a MHz scale. The steady-state mean vibrational quantum number is calculated to be less than 0.005. Efficient cooling is achievable in a motional-mode frequency range of 2π · (1.5 ± 0.5 MHz).
