Development of a Cesium Fountain Clock at HUST: Preliminary Results
Abstract
A cesium atomic fountain clock is under development at Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) in China. In this paper, we describe the construction of the entire fountain clock system and report the preliminary results. A frequency stability of $2.5\times 10^{-13} {\tau}^{-1/2}$ has been achieved by inter-comparison with a hydrogen maser, and the factors limiting the frequency stability are also discussed.
