A compact optical lattice clock with a volume of 250 liters has been developed. The system includes a physics package for conducting spectroscopy on the clock transition within a vacuum chamber, ...
The quantum clock design proposed by this team of researchers challenges the long-held assumption that increasing the precision of time-keeping devices comes at a cost, namely an increase in energy ...
Researchers at the UK’s National Physical Laboratory (NPL) have created a tiny atomic fountain clock. It is only 5 percent the size of a normal one but keeps the same high-precision time. The clock’s ...
Chinese research team achieved a major breakthrough in continuous-wave vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) light sources, a longstanding bottleneck in the development of the nuclear clock, Science and Technology ...
Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Dave Altavilla is a Tech Analyst covering chips, compute and AI. Like the heartbeat of a human, timing technologies such as ...
Where and why tiny, portable, atomic clocks and their precision are needed. How atomic clocks are no longer room- or box-size arrangements. The size, power, and other metrics of a latest-generation ...
Over on his secondary YouTube channel, [Jeff Geerling] recently demoed the new Mitxela Precision Clock Mk IV. This clock uses GPS to get the current time, but also your location so it can figure out ...
