Abstract
We demonstrate the controlled creation of a mathrm{174Yb2+} ion by photo-ionizing mathrm{174Yb^+} with weak continuous-wave lasers at ultraviolet wavelengths. The photo-ionization is performed by resonantly exciting transitions of the mathrm{174Yb^+} ion in three steps. Starting from an ion crystal of two laser-cooled mathrm{174Yb^+} ions localized in a radio-frequency trap, the verification of the ionization process is performed by characterizing the properties of the resulting mixed-species ion-crystal. The obtained results facilitate fundamental studies of physics involving mathrm{Yb2+} ions.
