Abstract

The invention discloses an atomic frequency standard and a servo locking method and belongs to the technical field of atomic frequency standards. The atomic frequency standard comprises a voltage controlled crystal oscillator, a comprehensive module, an amplitude stabilizing module, a radio frequency doubling module, a microwave mixed frequency doubling module, a physical unit and a servo module. The comprehensive module is used for generating comprehensive modulation signals. The amplitude stabilizing module is used for converting the amplitude of the comprehensive modulation signals to a preset value to obtain the amplitude-stabilized comprehensive modulation signals. The radio frequency doubling module is used for doubling frequency of output signals of the voltage controlled crystal oscillator to obtain frequency doubled signals. The microwave frequency doubling module is used for mixing and doubling the amplitude-stabilized comprehensive modulation signals and the frequency doubled signals to generate microwave search signals. The physical unit is used for subjecting the microwave search signals to quantum frequency discrimination to generate quantum frequency discrimination signals. The servo module is used for subjecting the quantum frequency discrimination signals to synchronous phase discrimination and generating rectifying voltage to act on the voltage controlled crystal oscillator. By converting the amplitude of the comprehensive modulation signals to the preset value to obtain the comprehensive modulation signals with stable amplitude, output frequency accuracy of the integral atomic frequency standard is improved.
