The development of active optical clock

J Zhang, T Shi, J Miao, J Chen - AAPPS Bulletin, 2023 - Springer
The atomic clocks, whether operating at optical or microwave region, can be divided into two
categories according to their working mode, namely the passive clocks and active clocks …

[HTML][HTML] Superradiant emission from colour centres in diamond

A Angerer, K Streltsov, T Astner, S Putz, H Sumiya… - Nature Physics, 2018 - nature.com
Superradiance is a fundamental collective effect where radiation is amplified by the
coherence of multiple emitters. Superradiance plays a prominent role in optics (where it …

[HTML][HTML] Proposal for a room-temperature diamond maser

L Jin, M Pfender, N Aslam, P Neumann, S Yang… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
The application of masers is limited by its demanding working conditions (high vacuum or
