  2. Quantum logic clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_logic_clock

    A quantum clock is a type of atomic clock with laser cooled single ions confined together in an electromagnetic ion trap. Developed in 2010 by physicists at the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology , the clock was 37 times more precise than the then-existing international standard. [ 1 ]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_clock

    Digital clocks typically use the 50 or 60 hertz oscillation of AC power or a 32,768 hertz crystal oscillator as in a quartz clock to keep time. Most digital clocks display the hour of the day in 24-hour format; in the United States and a few other countries, a commonly used hour sequence option is 12-hour format (with some indication of AM or PM).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_clock

    A caesium atomic clock from 1975 (upper unit) and battery backup (lower unit) [15] In 1949, Alfred Kastler and Jean Brossel [16] developed a technique called optical pumping for electron energy level transitions in atoms using light. This technique is useful for creating much stronger magnetic resonance and microwave absorption signals ...

  5. Atmos clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmos_clock

    The first clock powered by changes in atmospheric pressure and temperature was invented by Cornelis Drebbel in the early 17th century. Drebbel built as many as 18 of these, the two most notable being for King James VI & I of Britain, and Rudolf II of Bohemia. The King James clock was known as the Eltham Perpetuum, and was famous throughout Europe.

  6. Quartz clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_clock

    The Lavet-type stepping motors used in analog quartz clock movements which themselves are driven by a magnetic field (generated by the coil) can be affected by external (nearby) magnetism sources, and this may impact the rotor sprocket output. As a result, the mechanical output of analog quartz clock movements may temporarily stop, advance or ...

  7. Clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock

    Clocks have different ways of displaying the time. Analog clocks indicate time with a traditional clock face and moving hands. Digital clocks display a numeric representation of time. Two numbering systems are in use: 12-hour time notation and 24-hour notation. Most digital clocks use electronic mechanisms and LCD, LED, or VFD displays.
