Abstract :
We describe the frequency comb generator at MIKES, with which laser frequency standards at 633 nm and 532 nm were measured. Frequencies were found to be within 0.2 kHz from the CIPM values for R(56)32-0 a10 and R(127)11-5 a16. An optical amplifier was developed for measurement of 633 nm standards.
