  • Abstract
    The frequency of a 1.5 mu m external-cavity semiconductor laser (ECL) is stabilised by detecting an acetylene (C2H2) absorption line with an offset-tracking DBR laser. Absolute stability better than 200 kHz is achieved while a linewidth narrower than 140 kHz and a continuous tuning range of 4 GHz are retained.
