title: Optical clock with millihertz linewidth based on a phase-matching effect.
abstract: We propose a new scheme for the optical frequency standard based on the phase-matching effect of the nonadiabatic interaction of two quasimonochromatic fields with the states 1S0, 1P1, and 3P0 of atoms 88Sr, which are trapped in an optical lattice with magic wavelength. After establishing the phase correlation between two laser fields by the nonadiabatic process, the final linewidth for the difference frequency field, which can be generated by a nonlinear optical crystal, is about 1 mHz.
