Optical lattice clock (1) is a type of atomic clock that can be 100 times more accurate than cesium atomic clocks, the ...

The most precise clocks in the world will lose only one second every 300 billion years—and someday they might fit in your ...

What's interesting about Ye's atomic clock, part of a joint endeavor between the University of Colorado Boulder and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), is that it is optical, ...

Optical clocks, for example, have the potential to define the unit of time — the second — to a more precise degree than is possible in the atomic clocks used at present. Mehedi Hasan and ...

Atomic Digital Clock Auto Set (no back light) - Using radio frequencies broadcast from NIST’s Colorado , the clock will automatically set to the correct time. Automatically adjusts to Daylight ...

spectroscopy and precision timekeeping via optical atomic clocks, earning the 2005 Nobel Prize in Physics. The initial frequency combs operated within the visible to near-infrared range. Shortly after ...

This laboratory is equipped with a microwave atomic clock linked to UTC(NPL), an optical frequency comb and an ultrastable laser, and has access to a commercial optical atomic clock. Of particular ...
