Lieu de soutenance : Observatoire de ParisBNM-SYRTE (SYstèmes de Référence Temps Espace), UMR CNRS 8630.61, avenue de l'Observatoire.75014 ParisThanks to their high accuracy, atomic frequency comparisons can be used to perform very stringent tests of the fundamental physical laws. Substantial improvements of these tests are expected, due to recent developments brought by the use of cold atoms and by new advances in the field of optical frequency standards and optical frequency measurements. In this thesis, we first explain how atomic frequency comparisons can be used to test the Equivalence Principle which is the basis of General Relativity. More precisely, these comparisons test the stability of fundamental constants such as the fine struc...
