Accurate frequency control of an internal-mirror He-Ne laser by means of a radiation-heating system.
Radiation heating enables fast temperature control. I applied radiation heating to the oscillation frequency control of an internal-mirror He-Ne laser. The laser system has a fast frequency response, and its oscillation frequency is offset-locked in an iodine-stabilized He-Ne laser by a phase-lock loop circuit. The frequency discrepancy σ between the master and the slave lasers is less than 10(-13) with a 100-s gate time.
