title: Direct frequency measurements of transitions at 520 THz (576 nm) in iodine and 260 THz (1.15 microm) in neon.
abstract: The o hyperfine component of the (127)I(2) 17-1 P(62) transition at 520 THz (576 nm) in iodine was measured with respect to the CH(4)-stabilized 88-THz He-Ne laser. A 26-THz CO(2) laser, a color-center laser at 130 THz, and a He-Ne laser at 260 THz were used as transfer oscillators. The measured I(2) frequency was 520 206 808.547 MHz with a total fractional uncertainty of 1.6 x 10(-10). The 1.15-microm (20)Ne Lamb-dip-stabilized laser frequency was 260 103 249.26 MHz with a total fractional uncertainty of 3.1 x 10(-10).
