Abstract :
A commercial AlGaAs diode laser is frequency-locked to a Fabry-Perot interferometer. The temperature stabilisation loop of the diode laser system maintains the relative stability within 11 kHz. When the frequency control loop is closed, the relative frequency stability is improved to 450 Hz.
