Description

Frequency dissemination in phase-stabilized optical fiber networks has become a state-of-the-art tool for metrological frequency comparisons and precision measurements. The recently established Swiss frequency metrology network spanning 456 km of fibers connects METAS to the University of Basel and ETH Zurich. This network enables dissemination of optical frequencies, referenced to the SI-traceable atomic clocks from METAS, to precision spectroscopy laboratories at the universities, with a fractional frequency link instability as low as $3.8\times10^{-19}$ at 2000 s integration time. We report on the state of the network and demonstrate its application in an SI-traceable measurement and stabilization of the absolute frequency of a spectroscopy laser in a remote laboratory.
