Abstract

We demonstrate a 30-km-long optical fiber link for frequency comparison between two strontium optical lattice clocks being developed at Riken and the University of Tokyo. We use a transfer laser at 1397 nm which is twice the wavelength of the clock transition of strontium clocks. The link stability is estimated to be 1×10 17 for an averaging time τ = 1 s, which is in good agreement with the theoretical limit calculated from the fiber noise spectrum. We discuss a remote clock comparison with stability of 10 (τ/s) by synchronously operating the two distant clocks.
