Paper Abstract
We present a new method for isolating optically active rare earth ions embedded in a crystalline or amorphous host. The technique relies upon the enhanced site selection created by an inhomogeneously broadened line in a sufficiently dilute system. Specific spatial and frequency requirements necessary for experimental observation of such systems are discussed. Preliminary data is presented demonstrating the technique. With additional experimental measures, detecting a single rare earth ion appears feasible.
