  • The absolute frequency of the 87 Sr optical clock transition
    Metrologia, 2008
    Co-Authors: Gretchen K. Campbell, Andrew D. Ludlow, Martin M. Boyd, Tanya Zelevinsky, Sebastian Blatt, Jan Thomsen, Michael J. Martin, Marcio H. G. De Miranda, Scott A Diddams
    Abstract:

    The absolute frequency of the 1 S0– 3 P0 clock transition of 87 Sr has been measured to be 429 228 004 229 873.65 (37) Hz using lattice-confined atoms, where the fractional uncertainty of 8.6 × 10 −16 represents one of the most accurate measurements of an atomic transition frequency to date. After a detailed study of systematic effects, which reduced the total systematic uncertainty of the Sr lattice clock to 1.5 × 10 −16 , the clock frequency is measured against a hydrogen maser which is simultaneously calibrated to the US primary frequency standard, the NIST Cs fountain clock, NIST-F1. The comparison is made possible using a femtosecond laser based optical frequency comb to phase coherently connect the optical and microwave spectral regions and by a 3.5 km Fibre Transfer scheme to compare the remotely located clock signals.
