EFTS 2014 Program
Deadline for registration: was June 7, 2014
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.
