The heart of a minuscule atomic clock—believed to be 100 times smaller than any other atomic clock—has been demonstrated by scientists at the Commerce Department’s National Institute of Standards and ...

Physicists like to measure things, and they like those measurements to be as precise as possible. That means working at unfathomably small scales, where distances are much smaller than even the ...

China has taken a significant step in high-precision timekeeping by mass-producing a fingernail-sized chip-scale atomic clock ...

Clocks on Earth are ticking a bit more regularly thanks to NIST-F4, a new atomic clock at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) campus in Boulder, Colorado. NIST-F4 measures an ...

Physicists are preparing to test whether atomic clocks can experience quantum superposition, ticking faster and slower simultaneously. The concept merges principles from quantum mechanics and ...

Symmetricom Inc., which makes network timekeeping technology in Santa Rosa, today unveiled a tiny atomic clock -- just one cubic inch in size -- that could change defense communications and other ...

Craig has worked in automotive media for nearly 20 years, producing content for publications ranging from Autoline and AutoGuide to Roadshow by CNET and EV Pulse. Aside from writing, he’s also ...

Markus Lutz is CTO and Founder of SiTime Corporation. He is a MEMS expert, a prolific entrepreneur and inventor who holds over 100 patents. Timekeeping might be the unsung hero of human ingenuity. The ...
