Abstract
The ground-state hyperfine splitting of trapped Cd-113(+) ions has bee n measured to be 15 199 862 858(2) Hz. The transition was detected by a laser microwave double-resonance method in the presence of He buffer gas. The result was corrected for the second-order magnetic-field dep endence. This paper also discusses the possibility of using Cd+ ions a s a microwave-frequency standard.
