Summary[edit]

Description
English: Mercury optical lattice clock of the LNE-SYRTE laboratory. It consists of four subsystems: a vacuum chamber required to provide an ultra-high vacuum environment with a residual pressure of mercury around 10^-9mbar and the three laser subsystems. The vacuum apparatus of the experiment consists of two sections. The first section contains the source of mercury atoms, which is a small droplet of mercury kept in a copper tube at −40°C. The second section contains the 3D-MOT and a vertically oriented 1D optical lattice trap. The two sections are separated by a 1.5mm diameter 12mm long tube, which forms an atomic beam and creates differential pressure of 3 orders of magnitude between the two chambers.
