Sub-hertz optical frequency metrology using a single ion of 171Yb+
<p>Optical frequency standards offer the possibility of a step improvement of up to two orders of magnitude in the accuracy with which the SI second can be realised. <sup>171</sup>Yb<sup>+</sup> possesses two dipole-forbidden optical transitions that are promising candi...
