    New Chip-Based Frequency Combs Demonstrate Potential for Portable Atomic Clocks

    October 5, 2026

    A measuring tape is the tool of choice for a carpenter who wants to measure the length of a wood beam, but what is the equivalent for an optical physicist who wants to measure the frequency of a light beam? Optical physicists generally rely on bulky equipment to measure light frequencies precisely, but a new experiment from JQI researchers and their colleagues demonstrated a miniature tool that provides a promising route to shrinking a variety of technologies used for precision measurements.
