Synchronization of Distant Optical Clocks at the Femtosecond Level

Synchronization of Distant Optical Clocks at the Femtosecond Level

The use of optical clocks or oscillators in future ultraprecise navigation, gravitational sensing, coherent arrays, and relativity experiments will require time comparison and synchronization over terrestrial or satellite free-space links. Here, we demonstrate full unambiguous synchronization of two...
