  • Abstract
    We have observed the saturation absorption of Cs/sub 2/ molecules in the tuning range of 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser and measured the absolute wave numbers of 94 absorption lines. We have also stabilized the laser frequency on the center of the absorption lines with a relative stability better than 2/spl times/10/sup -12/.
