Like the teeth of a comb, a microcomb consists of a spectrum of evenly distributed light frequencies. Optical atomic clocks can be built by locking a microcomb tooth to a ultranarrow-linewidth laser, ...

WASHINGTON — Researchers have demonstrated a new optical atomic clock that uses a single laser and doesn’t require cryogenic temperatures. By greatly reducing the size and complexity of atomic clocks ...

Physicists are quietly rewriting one of the most basic units in science, using a new generation of optical clocks that can keep time so precisely they barely lose a beat over the age of the universe.

This latest upgrade of our high-end optical cesium clocks continues that tradition, delivering significant improvements in short-term frequency stability while maintaining the superb long-term ...

A research team at VTT MIKES has set a new record in optical-clock absolute frequency measurements using a strontium single-ion clock with exceptionally low uncertainty and high uptime. The official ...

Modern-day communications rely on both fibre-optic cables and wireless radiofrequency (RF) microwave communications. Reaching higher data transmission capabilities is going to require technologies ...

Craig has worked in automotive media for nearly 20 years, producing content for publications ranging from Autoline and AutoGuide to Roadshow by CNET and EV Pulse. Aside from writing, he’s also ...
