摘要
We propose an approach to all-optical frequency standard design, based on a counterintuitive combination of the coherent population trapping effect and signal discrimination at the maximum of absorption for the probe radiation. The short-term stability of such a standard can achieve the level of 10(-14)/root tau. The physics beyond this approach is a dark resonance splitting caused by the interaction of the nuclear magnetic moment with the external magnetic field.
