An atomic oscillator includes: a gas cell in which a gaseous metal atom is sealed; first and second heaters heating the gas cell; an exciting light source exciting the metal atom; a light detector detecting the exciting light; a substrate including a temperature controlling circuit for the heaters; a first wiring coupling the first heater and the substrate; a second wiring coupling the second heater and the substrate; and a third wiring coupling the first heater and the second heater. In the atomic oscillator, the gas cell includes a cylinder and windows sealing both ends of the cylinder and constituting an incident surface and an emitting surface on an optical path of the exciting light. The first and second heaters are respectively formed on the windows at an incident surface side and an emitting surface side and are made of transparent heating materials.
