Optical atomic clocks

open access: yesReviews of Modern Physics, 2015
Optical atomic clocks represent the state-of-the-art in the frontier of modern measurement science. In this article we provide a detailed review on the development of optical atomic clocks that are based on trapped single ions and many neutral atoms. We discuss important technical ingredients for optical clocks, and we present measurement precision and

Gravitational Redshift Tests with Atomic Clocks and Atom Interferometers

open access: yesPRX Quantum, 2021
Atomic interference experiments can probe the gravitational redshift via the internal energy splitting of atoms and thus give direct access to test the universality of the coupling between matter-energy and gravity at different spacetime points.

Mirror Clock: A Strategy for Identifying Atomic Clock Frequency Jumps

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Atomic clock frequency jumps directly influence the accuracy and reliability of timekeeping systems. The necessary corrections are typically implemented by postprocessing mutual comparison data between multiple atomic clocks based on the overly strict ...

Towards a Re-definition of the Second Based on Optical Atomic Clocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The rapid increase in accuracy and stability of optical atomic clocks compared to the caesium atomic clock as primary standard of time and frequency asks for a future re-definition of the second in the International System of Units (SI).

Quantum Variational Optimization of Ramsey Interferometry and Atomic Clocks

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2021
We discuss quantum variational optimization of Ramsey interferometry with ensembles of N entangled atoms, and its application to atomic clocks based on a Bayesian approach to phase estimation.

Magic Wavelengths for Optical-Lattice Based Cs and Rb Active Clocks

open access: yesAtoms, 2020
Active clocks could provide better stabilities during initial stages of measurements over passive clocks, in which stabilities become saturated only after long-term measurements.

Time transfer and significance of vertical land motion in relativistic geodesy applications: a review paper

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Determination of the Earth’s gravity field and geopotential value is one of the fundamental topics in physical geodesy. Traditional terrestrial gravity and precise leveling measurements can be used to determine the geopotential values at a local or ...

Coherent manipulation of atomic qubits in optical micropotentials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We experimentally demonstrate the coherent manipulation of atomic states in far-detuned dipole traps and registers of dipole traps based on two-dimensional arrays of microlenses.

Blackbody radiation shift assessment for a lutetium ion clock

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
There is a continuous effort to improve the accuracy of atomic clocks. Here the authors measure the static differential scalar polarizability of Lutetium ion resonant transitions and its lower light shift from blackbody radiation makes it a promising ...
