Describes here a configuration of an atomic clock using a source of cesium atoms cooled with isotropic light. This three-dimensional (3-D)-cooling scheme yields a number of atoms of nearly 10/sup 9/ with a temperature below 100 /spl mu/K. These values are suitable for metrological applications. We present the preliminary results obtained and give a first estimation of the frequency performances for this kind of atomic clock.

We present first a new 3-dimensional cooling configuration with isotropic light. We demonstrate that this cooling technique is very efficient and easy to operate. Secondly, we present two simple clock configurations using a source of atoms cooled in isotropic light. We expect these clocks to be very compact with good frequency performances.

Compact CW cold beam cesium atomic clock

Walter F. Buell, Bernardo Jaduszliwer

We present a novel cesium beam physics package, which uses optical techniques to combine the high signal-to-noise ratios achievable by optical pumping and beam brightening with the narrow linewidth allowed by a slow atomic beam. Our design can be realized in a compact, robust package suitable for space applications. Our approach differs from other laser-cooled clocks in that we use a cold-atom source that provides a continuous beam. We estimate the shot noise-limited stability that can be achieved with this physics package to be two to three orders of magnitude better than that of current compact cesium beam atomic clocks.
