Interspecies clock comparison below uncertainty with a transportable clock
Chetan Vishwakarma, Ingo Nosske, Tim Lücke +6
We report a measurement of the optical frequency ratio between the -- electric-octupole (E3) transition of Yb and…
Scalable chip-based 3D ion traps
Elena Jordan, Malte Brinkmann, Alexandre Didier +8
Ion traps are used for a wide range of applications from metrology to quantum simulations and quantum information processing. Microfabricated chip-based 3D ion traps are scalable t…
International Optical Clock Comparison Using the European Optical Fiber Network
Marco Pizzocaro, Clara Zyskind, Anne Amy-Klein +41
Optical clocks have achieved remarkable estimated fractional frequency uncertainties reaching the level and below, enabling applications in fundamental physics, general…
A multi-ion optical clock with uncertainty
Melina Filzinger, Martin R. Steinel, Jian Jiang +4
Today's most accurate clocks are based on laser spectroscopy of electronic transitions in single trapped ions and feature fractional frequency uncertainties below …
The QTF-Backbone: Proposal for a Nationwide Optical Fibre Backbone in Germany for Quantum Technology and Time and Frequency Metrology
Klaus Blaum, Peter Kaufmann, Jochen Kronjäger +168
The recent breakthroughs in the distribution of quantum information and high-precision time and frequency (T&F) signals over long-haul optical fibre networks have transformative po…
Coordinated international comparisons between optical clocks connected via fiber and satellite links
Thomas Lindvall, Marco Pizzocaro, Rachel M. Godun +62
Optical clocks provide ultra-precise frequency references that are vital for international metrology as well as for tests of fundamental physics. To investigate the level of agreem…
