抄録

Since the invention of the laser in 1960s, the stability of the laser frequency has been improved which is stabilized in reference to the molecular absorption or the resonance of the Fabry-Perot cavity, and frequency-stabilized lasers have been used for precision spectroscopy or precise interferometric measurement. In 1990s, the optical frequency standards have been proposed using cooled atoms or a single ion confi ned in small area, and among them, the optical lattice clock is one of the most promising candidates for the next-generation international optical frequency standards whose frequency stability is rapidly improved to reach 10‒18 level that is higher than that of the cesium atomic fountain clock. The key technology for further improvement of the optical lattice clock is a probe laser with extremely narrow linewidth that is limited by the thermal noise of the Fabry-Perot cavity. The cryogenic cavity, the silicon single-crystal cavity or crystalline coating decrease the thermal noise limited level to reach the laser linewidth of a few mHz level. The highly frequency-stabilized lasers can be easily transfer its stability to another frequency by using optical frequency comb, and disseminate its stability by using precision optical fi ber links. The frequency stability of the 10‒18 level of the laser makes it possible to verify fundamental physics such as time variations of fundamental constant or isotropy of the speed of light, and also to apply to the geodesy or gravitational wave detection.
