Cesium Atomic Fountain Clocks at Nmij
We describe the recent progress in our cesium atomic fountains at National Metrology Institute of Japan (NMIJ). We have developed three atomic fountains: NMIJ-F1, NMIJ-F2, and a truncated atomic beam fountain. NMIJ-F1 has been the primary frequency standard with uncertainty of 4×10 -15 since 2004. Especially in the last 4 years, we have reported the data to Bureau International des Poids et Mes...
متن کاملQuantum Projection Noise in an Atomic Fountain: A High Stability Cesium Frequency Standard
We describe the operation of a laser cooled cesium fountain clock in the quantum limited regime. An ultrastable cryogenic sapphire oscillator is used to measure the short-term frequency stability of the fountain as a function of the number of detected atoms Nat. For Nat varying from 4 3 104 to 6 3 105 the Allan standard deviation of the frequency fluctuations is in excellent agreement with the ...
متن کاملSecond Generation Cesium Fountain Primary Frequency Standards at NIST
NIST is currently investigating the design of a second-generation cesium-fountain primary frequency standard. The design goals of this standard include an ultimate frequency inaccuracy of δf/f < 10 and achievable stability better than σy(τ) < 10/τ. This standard is expected to eventually replace NIST-F1, the current U.S. primary frequency standard [1]. In the context of reaching frequency uncer...
متن کاملCold collision frequency shifts in a 87Rb atomic fountain.
We present measurements of cavity frequency pulling and collisional frequency shifts in a 87Rb fountain with a frequency resolution of 3x10(-16). Agreement with theory is found for the cavity pulling and the measured collisional shifts. The clock shift is found at least 50 times smaller than in 133Cs.
متن کاملCesium Beam Atomic Time and Frequency Standards
In recognition of the 0ct)ober 1964 declaration of the International Committee of Weights and Measures that the physical measurement of time be based on a particular transition between two hyperfine levels in the ground state of cesium 133, a review of the characteristics of cesium beam atomic frequency standards is presented. This article discusses the general requirements for frequency and ti...
