Electrostatic acceleration or deceleration is an integral part of many nuclear and atomic physics experiments. If the goal is to exactly define or measure a particle’s kinetic energy, accurate high voltage measurements become inevitable. The best high-voltage dividers provide accuracy at the 1-ppm level by scaling down high voltages via resistor chains, however regular elaborate calibration and cross checking is needed. This process can be obviated by directly attributing voltage to frequency, exploiting the Doppler effect on accelerated ions. We report on improved measurements at the ALIVE experiment at TU Darmstadt for high voltage determination using a pump-and-probe approach on accelerated Ca+ ions using two lasers to address the Ca+ ions before and after the acceleration. In the latest configuration a relative precision of 1 ppm was achieved. The absolute nature of the measurement allows the definition of a new high voltage standard and constitutes a reliable calibration apparatus for high voltage dividers.
