Trapped Ions as Reference
Trap RF
• Are atoms and identical by their nature
• The charge allows trapping to be decouple from
the internal electronic state
• Deep trapping and strong confinement
• Can be well isolated from the environment
Advantages of trapped ions and clock reference
Disadvantages of trapped ions
• Micromotion needs to be controlled
• Trapping many ions is challenging due to the
strong Coulomb repulsion

Comparison to GPS
Optical frequency comb) locked to stable laserGPS receiver
• Comparing the stable laser to GPS clock through the frequency comb
• At short time scale stability is limited by GPS
• At times > 1 hour the cavity (linear) drift become apparent

GPS receiver• Comparing the stable laser to GPS clock through the frequency comb
• At short time scale stability is limited by GPS
• At times > 1 hour the cavity (linear) drift become apparent
• With calibration of the drift using the ion (3 measurements) the Allen div. keeps improving

Clock interrogation schemes

Magnetic field gradient(~60 μG)• Cancelling the DC magnetic field with a single
“magnetic Echo” in a Ramsey sequence Two ions Ramsey spectroscopy (100ms)
• 88Sr+ ions have first order sensitivity to magnetic field.
• For single ion solved by averaging opposite Zeeman states
• For many ions homogeneity matters
• There is advantage in coherent averaging
𝛿f

Two entangled ions clock
Another solution is using two ions in entangled state:
• The 𝛿B drops out because of the opposite Zeeman states in each part of the superposition
• The signal is acquired twice faster (however also the dephasing)• Required single ion addressing capability
