We applied a femtosecond-laser frequency comb to phase-coherently link PTB’s cold-atom based Ca frequency standard and the single-ion Yb+ standard to the Cs primary standard. A first measurement of the Ca 1S03P1 intercombination transition at 657 nm yielded a frequency νCa = 455 986 240 494 276 Hz, which agrees within its relative uncertainty of 4× 10−13 with the values previously measured with the PTB’s harmonic frequency chain and with the value recommended by the CIPM. Recent improvements led to a <10−12/τ instability of the measurement process. An updated value for the Ca standard and a first value for the Yb+ 2S3/22D3/2 clock transition will be presented at the conference.
