Abstract :
We demonstrate a laser system consisting of an external cavity diode laser phase-locked to another free-running one at a wavelength of 780 nm using an intracavity electro-optic phase modulator. A bandwidth of > 10 MHz and a phase noise of < -100 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz from the carrier are achieved.
