The master student will join the effort at LPL to develop a new-generation compact and versatile microwave (MW) spectrometer operating over the 2–20 GHz range. This instrument is conceived both as a high-sensitivity detector of internal quantum states in polyatomic molecules and as a precision tool for molecular frequency metrology. The spectrometer will enable cross-checks between MW rotational frequencies and mid-infrared (MIR) rovibrational data planned to be measured at the 100 Hz level in the frame of the ANR Ultiµos project. These comparisons are directly motivated by the search for potential variations of the proton-to-electron mass ratio µ, a fundamental constant whose stability can be tested by confronting laboratory data with MW astronomical spectra of molecules such as methanol and ammonia. These species possess transitions with strong sensitivity coefficients to µ, making them powerful probes of possible temporal or spatial variations of fundamental constants. In Ultiµos, spectroscopy with ultrastable MIR quantum cascade lasers provide ultra-precise MIR frequencies with relative uncertainties of 10 ¹². By using combination–difference schemes, these MIR data yield effective MW intervals that can be directly confronted with our SI-traceable MW measurements. Such dual determinations, based on entirely different experimental chains and affected by distinct systematic effects, are ideal for robust cross-validation of frequency values and uncertainty budgets.
