  • Abstract
    The performances of He-Ne lasers stabilized by saturated absorption in methane at 3.39 μm and iodine at 633 nm have been compared from the point of view of their use as optical frequency standards. Both lasers have shown a frequency stability comparable with the cesium-beam frequency standard and a reproducibility much better than the krypton-lamp length standard.
