9 Frequency generation: atomic cesium clock (Cs) Stimulated Emission slide 9
10 Frequency generation: atomic cesium clock (Cs) Working principle In a cesium clock, cesium is heated to a gaseous state in an oven. A hole in the oven allows the atoms to escape at high speed. Magnets separate the atoms to exclude the impurities. The atoms that can absorb energy are directed through a microwave cavity where they are exposed to radiation with a frequency very close to 9,192,631,770 cycles per second, which is given by the Quartz Oscillator. These atoms are then pushed by another set of magnets toward a detector. This feedback tunes the microwave frequency until it exactly matches the radiation frequency of the cesium atoms, maximizing the number of atoms that reach the detector. Once the microwave frequency is locked into the cesium atoms' frequency, it is then divided down to a frequency that can be used to mark time accurately to a few billionths of a second. slide 10
11 Frequency generation: atomic cesium clock (Cs) Magnetic Cesium Beam Tube slide 11
12 Frequency source: atomic rubidium oscillator (Rb) slide 12
13 Frequency source: atomic rubidium oscillator (Rb) Energy Levels Optical Pumping 780 nm E GHz E2 E1 slide 13
14 Frequency generation: atomic rubidium oscillator (Rb) Working principle Light from 87 Rb lamp contains both 3-1 and 2-1 lines. 85 Rb cell filters out the 2-1 line and transmits the 3-1 line. The filtered light optically pumps 87 Rb atoms in the resonance cell from level 1 to 3. The injected microwave frequency at GHz induces transition from level 2 to 1. When the injected frequency matches the difference 2-1, the photo-diode detects a reduction in the amount of light. This feedback tunes the microwave frequency until it exactly matches the 2-1 difference. Once the microwave frequency is locked to the rubidium atoms' frequency, it is then divided down to a lower frequency. There exist other variants of Rubidium oscillators with a slightly different working principle (tuned laser diode instead of 87 Rb lamp, no microwave cavity). slide 14

One or two ovens Single oven OCXO: 5E-9 to 5E-8 over [-30 C to 60 C] Double oven OCXO: 1E-10 to 5E-9 over [-30 C to 60 C] Double oven OCXO with BVA: 1E-10 over [-30 C to 60 C], 5E-11 over [-15 C to 60 C] Note 1: BVA = high tech resonator with improved ageing Oven Outer Oven Inner Oven Temp.

24 Time scale generation: clocks and time scales A time scale is defined by: 1) a time unit 2) a time origin A date is a number of units on the time scale A clock consists of: 1) a periodic phenomenon which can be observed 2) a counter which counts the number of periods 3) a means for setting the counter to a preset value 4) a display of the registered count Oscillator u(t) n(t) T(t) Counter Display N 0 start slide 24
25 Time scale generation: definition of the second The second is the time unit of the International System of Units (SI). Definition: The second is the duration of periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the fundamental state of the Cesium 133 atom. slide 25
26 Time scale generation: atomic time scales Origin of Atomic Time Scales : 1 January 1958, on 0 h 0 min 0 s UT2 International Atomic Time (TAI) : Time scale based on the definitions of the second and of the origin of Atomic Time Scales (as mentioned above), and implemented by a network of atomic clocks located all over the earth and operated by the Bureau International de l Heure (BIH) in Paris. slide 26
27 Time scale generation: atomic time scales Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) : Timescale based on the time unit of TAI, but adjusted by means of leap seconds so as to keep within 0.9 seconds of UT1; UTC differs from TAI by an integer number of seconds; leap seconds are added or subtracted when necessary at the end of the last day of a month. UT1: based on the rotation of the Earth around its axis UT2: based on the rotation of the Earth around the sun slide 27
