Abstract

We analyze perspectives for creation of a novel, stable ⁸⁷Rb-based frequency standard. Although the stability ~10^-14 is challenging, achieving this goal looks ultimately possible. We considers three different all-optical repumping schemes aimed to improve the contrast of the dark resonance in thermal ⁸⁷Rb vapor: excitation by a σ⁺ -polarized bichromatic laser radiation, and σ⁺ - σ^- bithromatic co-propagating fields, and a novel excitation scheme with transversal laser pumping. Qualitative considerations are confirmed by numerical calculations.
