Abstract
A new technique has been developed to measure isotope shifts of high-lying atomic levels using multi-step photoionization. This technique has been demonstrated with the measurement of isotope shift between235U and238U isotopes in the energy level at 34372.992 cm−1. The value of isotope shift thus measured matches well with the value reported in literature.
