Robust laser frequency stabilization by serrodyne modulation.
We report the relative frequency stabilization of a distributed feedback erbium-doped fiber laser on an optical cavity by serrodyne frequency shifting. A correction bandwidth of 2.3 MHz and a dynamic range of 220 MHz are achieved, which leads to a strong robustness against large disturbances up to high frequencies. We demonstrate that serrodyne frequency shifting reaches a higher correction ban...
متن کاملInterferometric, modulation-free laser stabilization.
We demonstrate novel modulation-free frequency locking of a diode laser, utilizing a simple Sagnac interferometer to create an error signal from saturated-absorption spectroscopy. The interference condition at the output of the Sagnac is strongly affected by the sharp dispersion feature near an atomic resonance. Slight misalignment of the interferometer and subsequent spatially selective, or ti...
متن کاملReduction of residual amplitude modulation to 1 × 10⁻⁶ for frequency modulation and laser stabilization.
Active control and cancellation of residual amplitude modulation (RAM) in phase modulation of an optical carrier is one of the key technologies for achieving the ultimate stability of a laser locked to an ultrastable optical cavity. Furthermore, such techniques are versatile tools in various frequency modulation-based spectroscopy applications. In this Letter we report a simple and robust appro...
متن کاملCavity-Enhanced Frequency Modulation Spectroscopy: Advancing Optical Detection Sensitivity and Laser Frequency Stabilization
High detection sensitivities of quantum absorptions are important in many research fields of physics, chemistry and biology. In this paper we present our latest results on the ultrasensitive molecular overtone spectroscopy using the cavity-enhanced frequency modulation (FM) technique. The principle of this method makes use of a high-finesse external cavity to enhance the intrinsic resonance con...
متن کاملLaser Frequency Stabilization by Means of Saturation Dispersion
A method for frequency stabilization of 3.39 /<m He-Ne lasers, which makes use of the saturation dispersion of the v 3 , P (7) methane transition is described. It is shown that with lasers which are stabilized by saturation effects, the absorptive and dispersive properties of the saturation resonance are not precisely distinguishable. This leads to a slightly asymmetric resonance and a shift of...
