Zusammenfassung:57,031A ATOMIC FREQUENCY STANDARD A cell-type atomic frequency standard utilizing a miniaturized gas cell (5) and microwave resonator (7) along with a diode laser light source (9). The intensity of the diode laser light source (9) counterbalances the penalties associated with the small gas cell (5). With the volume of the gas cell not exceeding 100 cubic millimeters, and with the associated circuitry formed on a semiconductor substrate, the resulting frequency standard is reduced in size by two orders of magnitude when compared to prior art devices of comparable accuracy.
