Remote frequency measurement of the 1S0-3P1 transition in laser cooled Mg-24

J. Friebe, M. Riedmann, T. Wübbena +9

We perform Ramsey-Bordé spectroscopy on laser-cooled magnesium atoms in free fall to measure the 1S0 \rightarrow 3P1 intercombination transition frequency. The measured value of 65…

The 87-Sr optical frequency standard at PTB

St. Falke, H. Schnatz, J. S. R. Vellore Winfred +8

With 87-Sr atoms confined in a one dimensional optical lattice, the frequency of the optical clock transition 5s^2 ^1S_0 - 5s5p ^3P_0 has been determined to be 429 228 004 229 872.…

Interrogation of caesium atoms in a fountain clock by a femtosecond laser microwave oscillator

S. Weyers, B. Lipphardt, H. Schnatz

A caesium fountain clock is operated utilizing a microwave oscillator that derives its frequency stability from a stable laser by means of a fiber-laser femtosecond frequency comb.…

The stability of an optical clock laser transferred to the interrogation oscillator for a Cs fountain

B. Lipphardt, G. Grosche, U. Sterr +3

We stabilise a microwave oscillator at 9.6 GHz to an optical clock laser at 344 THz by using a fibre-based femtosecond laser frequency comb as a transfer oscillator. With a second…

An Optical Lattice Clock with Spin-polarized 87Sr Atoms

Xavier Baillard, Mathilde Fouché, Rodolphe Le Targat +14

We present a new evaluation of an 87Sr optical lattice clock using spin polarized atoms. The frequency of the 1S0-3P0 clock transition is found to be 429 228 004 229 873.6 Hz with…
