Physicists have proposed a new kind of atomic clock based on a revived superradiant laser concept that could produce an extraordinarily stable signal with a linewidth around 100 microhertz, potentially the narrowest ever for an optical laser.

"A laser immune to environmental frequency shifts would be a powerful tool in optical interferometry -- using interference patterns in light... Read more ›
