The frequency stability is studied through the Allan deviation and its dependence on the excitation method (single Rabi pulse or two Ramsey pulses schemes) and the laser linewidth are discussed. The minimum Allan deviation that can be expected is estimated to $sigma_y( au) approx 2.5 imes 10^{-15}/sqrt{ au}$ with $ au$ the integration time. The frequency shifts induced by the environmental conditions are evaluated to minimize the uncertainty of the proposed standard by chosing the most suited environment for the ion. If using the odd isotope $^{43}$Ca$^{+}$ and a vessel cooled to 77 K, the expected relative shift is $-2 imes 10^{-16}$ with an uncertainty of $pm 4 imes10^{-16}$, mainly due to the quadrupole shift induced by the unknown static electric field gradient . | | Source: | arXiv, physics/0312120 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
