摘要
CSIR-NPL, India (NPLI) has developed its first Cesium atomic fountain (NPLI-CsF1). The indigenously developed fountain frequency standard is now fully operational and its frequency is now being evaluated along with all systematic and statistical uncertainties. Seven frequency evaluations have been recently conducted to estimate fountain frequency with respect to UTC (Coordinate Universal Time). The fountain frequency is compared with the Hydrogen MASER frequency which is contributing to UTC and hence fountain frequency is evaluated with respect to the UTC The fountain frequency is stable to few parts in 10(15) at <1 day averaging time.
