Abstract :
A synthesis scheme for a high C-field cesium resonator is proposed, which can provide two frequencies with the necessary resolutions. Two different frequency-lock loops are used to measure the υ-1 and υ0 transitions. The former controls a high stability quartz oscillator with a relatively long time constant. The latter is used to measure the C-field
