Optical clocks represent the forefront of frequency metrology enabling applications in relativistic geodesy, tests of fundamental physics, and the search for dark matter. As their systematic uncertainty reaches the low 10−18 regime, reducing their frequency instability becomes even more important in order to exploit their potential. Here, we report on recent improvements of the Sr lattice clocks at PTB by phase-locking the interrogation laser to cryogenic Si resonators at 194 THz. Frequency instabilities of 6 · 10−17 (τ/s)−1/2 are inferred from clock self-comparisons.
