  • Abstract
    This work aims at showing the wavelength servo-locking of continuous-wave (cw) or pulsed microchip solid-state lasers to molecular reference lines, by using the pump power as the only wavelength controller, without adding any external element. This wavelength-stabilization technique is straightforward to implement for any microchip laser, either in cw or Q-switched mode.
