Abstract

A simple and effective method for stabilizing laser frequencies using scanning transfer cavities and a stabilized helium-neon laser was applied to extended-cavity diode lasers near 866 nm and 397 nm. The frequency drift of the stabilized 866 nm laser measured using an optical frequency synthesizer was smaller than 200 kHz for 1 h. The square root of the Allan variance was 1 × 10-10 at an averaging time of 103 s.
