摘要(Abstract):
随着时间频率的研究水平不断提高,实现比现有精度大幅度提高的新一代时间传递技术的研究受到广泛关注。激光脉冲时间传递作为目前自由空间时间传递精度最高的技术,其精度提高与采用的探测手段和脉冲光量子特性紧密关联。应用飞秒光频梳实现高精度时间传递是目前国际研究的一个新热点,近年来取得了许多突破性进展。在此基础上,量子优化的时间传递研究也随之展开。应用具有压缩特性的量子光频梳替代传统光频梳,将使时间延迟的测量精度突破散粒噪声极限。因此,基于量子测量和量子光频梳光源的量子优化在提高自由空间远程时间传递精度方面具有巨大应用潜力,是未来时间频率的高精度传输与比对技术的重要研究方向。
