Description

We have recently demonstrated a laser-cooled optical beam clock based on the 10mHz-wide 1S0-3P0 transition in neutral ytterbium. Our goal is to combine the robust architecture of a beam clock with the improved performance offered by optical transitions to produce a device that can provide high-performance timing capabilities outside of the lab.
