the nearly continuous operation of an 171Yb optical lattice clock for half a year
Abstract
Optical lattice clocks
surpass primary Cs microwave clocks in frequency stability and accuracy, and are promising candidates for a redefinition of the second in the International System of Units (SI).However,
the robustness of optical lattice clockshas not yet reached a level comparable to that of Cs fountain clocks which contribute to International Atomic Time (TAI) by the nearly continuous operation.
In this paper,
we report the long-term operation of an 171Yb optical lattice clockwith a coverage of 80.3% for half a year including uptimes of 93.9% for the first 24 days and 92.6% for the last 35 days.
This enables a nearly dead-time-free frequency comparison of the optical lattice clock with TAI over months,
which provides a link to the SI second with an uncertainty of low 10−16.
By using this link,
the absolute frequency of the 1S$_{0}-^{3}$P0 clock transition of 171Ybis measured as 518 295 836 590 863.54(26) Hz with a fractional uncertainty of 5.0 × 10−16.
This value is in agreement with the recommended frequency of 171Yb as a secondary representation of the second.
