We present a solution to scale up optical lattice experiments with ultracold atoms by an order of magnitude compared to the state-of-the-art. We utilize power enhancement in optical cavities to create two-dimensional optical lattices with large mode waists using low input power. We test our system using high-resolution clock spectroscopy on ultracold Strontium atoms trapped in the lattice. The observed spectral features can be used to locally measure the lattice potential envelope and the sample temperature with a spatial resolution limited only by the optical resolution of the imaging system. The measured lattice mode waist is 489(8) μm and the trap lifetime is 59(2) s. We observe a long-term stable lattice frequency and trap depth on the MHz level and the 0.1% level. Our results demonstrate that large, deep, and stable two-dimensional cavity-enhanced lattices can be created at any wavelength and can be used to scale up neutral-atom-based quantum simulators, quantum computers, sensors, and optical lattice clocks.
