Chip-Scale Atomic Clocks: Physics, technologies, and applications
We report on a cycle of four presentations on Chip-Scale Atomic Clocks (CSACs) requested by DG DEFIS Unit B.2 and given in April/May 2021 to an audience composed by policy officers from DG JRC, DG DEFIS, DG CNECT, DG DIGIT, DG MOVE, REA, EISMEA, HaDEA, COUNCIL, EDA, and ESA. The presentations provide an overview of the place of CSACs in the clock landscape, their underlying working principles and enabling technologies, the available commercial devices, and the research and development initiatives going on worldwide. Applications are also covered, from which it becomes apparent the critical importance of CSACs for several military uses. The aim of the report is to provide scientific and technical background for policy initiatives in an area of potential interest for strategic autonomy.
