Roger Brown (Fed)

Roger Brown is a Physicist in the Neutral Atom Optical Clocks group in the Time & Frequency Division at NIST. His work focuses on the development of a transportable Ytterbium optical lattice clock. This project will contribute to the redefinition of the SI second, benchmark novel commercial and industrial optical clocks, and act as a quantum sensor to test the theory of General Relativity via geodetic measurements.
