Using one of the absorption lines of $^{13}C_2H_2$ molecules near the zero dispersion wavelength(1549.49nm) of dispersion shifted fiber, we stabilized center frequency of an optical fiber Fabry-Perot filter. The free spectral range of the filter is 100 GHz for 100 GHz channel allocation. For equi-spaced three channel multiplexing, channel locking of three DFB-LDs to transmission peaks of the fiber Fabry-Perot filter was tried. To investigate the effect of dithering current applied to each DFB-LD, the change of DFB-LD linewidth was measured.

We stabilized the frequency and power of a CW radio-frequency-excited $CO_2$ laser on the peak of the Doppler broadened gain curve using the photoacoustic effect generated from the laser itself. The condenser microphone is installed in the radio frequency discharge chamber to detect a photoacoustic signal. The photoacoustic signal is fed to a lock-in stabilizer as a reference signal for stabilization. The frequency stability is estimated to be better then 5.4${\times}$10$^{-8}$ at the P(20) line. The stabilized output variation was reduced 9.3%, compared to 100% for a free running laser.

We have stabIhzed the laser frequency of a commercial dIode laser using a ULE (Ultra-low expansion material) reference cavIty and the cunent modulation charactenstics of the dIode itself The liuewIdth of the frce running laser was about a 1 MHz (rms) for a sampling time of 1 s and the drift rate was 300 kHz/s. Vvhen the laser is locked to oue sIde of the transmission signal from the ULE reference cavity, the lincwidth was reduced to 46 kHz (nus) for a sampling time longer than 10 ms. The root Allan variance was less than 2 kHz for a sampling time langeI than10 ms. 10 ms.

Doppler-free circular polarization spectroscopy in 87Rb Dz line has been carried out by using a diode laser whose linewidth was narrowed by an external cavity, and experimental results were compared with an optical pumping polarization spectroscopy theory. A dispersive spectrum obtained in a weak pump beam was completely fitted to a single cycle optical pumping theory. The laser frequency was locked to a Rb atomic hyperfine transition line without any frequency modulation by using the dispersive curve as an error signal. ignal.

We have measured the wavelengths of the absorption lines of the $^{13}$ C$_2$H$_2$molecule by using a wavelength meter calibrated against the national optical frequency standard (iodine Stabilized He-Ne Laser, KRISS-R701) in the visible wavelength region. To measure the absolute wavelengths of the absorption lines, the frequency of the laser has been stabilized in the peaks and the sides of the absorption lines of $^{13}$ C$_2$H$_2$. Also, we have proposed the development of a frequency standard source of ITU-T grid using stabilization in the sides of the absorption lines of $^{13}$ C$_2$H$_2$.

Frequency modulation spectroscopy of the super-cavity, of which finesse is app. 40,000 has been demonstrated by using a sigle mode He-Ne laser. In-phase and quardrature components of frequency modulation signals (FM signal) were obtained by using the 1.5 MHz-driven-electrooptic phase modulator. The vector locus of the FM signa in the phase space, which is consisted of in-phase and quardrature components of the FM signal, was observed and analyzed for the dependence of FM signal upon the phase of the reference signal of a phase-sensitive-detector. According to rotating the phase of the reference signal, the vector locus was observed to rotate with the same phase angle as the reference signal. The in-phase component of the FM signals will be used to stabilize the frequency of the He-Ne laser to the resonant frequency of the super-cavity.

We have observed the saturated absorption spectrum of the P(16) line of the V$_1$＋V$_3$ band of $^{13}$ C$_2$H$_2$ molecule by using the external cavity spectroscopy method. The frequency of laser has been stabilized to the saturated absorption spectrum. The relative contrast of the saturation spectrum is about 7 % with respect to the linear absorption and the linewidth is about 1.8 MHz. The frequency fluctuation of the stabilized LD is about $\pm$20 KHz during the sampling time 100 S.

펨토초 모드록 레이저는 공진기의 왕복시간 $\tau$마다 펨토초 폭을 갖는 펄스를 발생시키고, Fourier 변환에 의해 주파수 공간에서는 일정한 주파수 간격 $\Delta$ = 1/$\tau$을 가지는 불연속 스펙트럼, 즉 광빗 스펙트럼을 갖게 된다(1). 광빗의 간격, 즉 펄스의 반복률, 은 $\Delta$ ： v$_{g}$l$_{c}$의 관계식에 의해 그룹속도(v$_{g}$)와 공진기 길이(l$_{c}$)에 의해 결정된다. 광빗의 간격을 고정시키기 위한 가장 일반적인 방법은 공진기 길이를 일정하게 유지하는 것이다. (중략)
