EFTS 2015 Program

Lectures and Seminars

  • Introduction to TF - Basic concepts and vocabulary (quality, certification, traceability etc), and technical issues (oscillators, frequency standards, accuracy, stability, phase noise, jitter, physical environment, etc.).
  • Measurement methods and experimental techniques - Spectra (phase noise and L(f), amplitude noise), variances, frequency measurement and comparison.
  • Atomic clocks - Physics, traditional clocks (atomic beam, vapor cell, and maser), cold atoms, optical clocks, small-size clocks.
  • Oscillators - RF/microwave, cavity-stabilized lasers, optical frequency combs.
  • Timing and applications - Time scales, navigation, frequency transfer and synchronization.
  • Physics, applications, and trends.

The EFTS 2015 course programme:

Hands-on Laboratory Courses

  • Laboratory sessions - Frequency stability and AM/PM noise, resonators and oscillators, timing and synchronization, vapor cell clocks, cold atoms, etc. Every day, the attendees will do real experiments and measurements.

Social Events

Visit of Besançon's Observatory
Visit of Besançon's Time Museum - (downtown City)
Nigth session at the Observatory's telescopes, (depending on weather conditions)
Social Dinner
Femto-ST Lab Tour
