Summary of Work on 'Cooled Ion Frequency Standard.'
Abstract
The purpose of this work is to develop techniques to overcome the fundamental limits of present frequency standards--the second and residual first-order Doppler shifts. To this end suitable frequency reference transitions are studied in ions which are stored in electromagnetic traps and cooled by radiation pressure to < 1K.
