Ultra-high stability optical frequency standard based on laser-cooled neutral calcium

A beatnote between the Ca and Hg/sup +/ optical frequency standards via a mode-locked fs-laser frequency comb demonstrates the highest frequency stability measured to date. The high stability accelerates evaluation of the Ca standard's systematic shifts.
