Abstract
Recent progress in optical lattice clocks requires unprecedented precision in controlling systematic uncertainties at level. Tuning of nonlinear light shifts is shown to reduce lattice-induced clock shift for wide range of lattice intensity. Based on theoretical multipolar, nonlinear, anharmonic and higher-order light shifts, we numerically demonstrate possible strategies for Sr, Yb, and Hg clocks to achieve lattice-induced systematic uncertainty below .
