Microwave atomic clocks have been the de facto standards for precision time and frequency metrology over the past 50 years; however, with its higher operating frequency, an atomic clock based on an optical transition can be much more stable. Diddams et al demonstrate an all-optical atomic clock referenced to the 1.064-petahertz transition of a sing...
