Widely tunable and narrow-linewidth lasers at visible wavelengths are necessary for
applications such as quantum optics, optical clocks and atomic and molecular physics. At …

Spectroscopy using tunable diode lasers is an area of research that has gone through a
dramatic evolution over the last few years, principally because of new exciting approaches …

This article attempts to review the major advancements made in the past 12 years, since
1993, in the field of diode laser atomic spectroscopy. The discussion covers experimental …

Continuously tunable lasers with a narrow linewidth are at the core of a large number
coherent optical systems. Integration of these devices on a single chip will enable a large …

Mode stability is an important performance characteristic of external cavity diode lasers
(ECDLs). It has been well established that the continuous mode-hop-free tuning range of a …

In this paper we discuss how different feedback gratings affect the tuning range and the
output power of external feedback diode laser systems. A tunable high-power narrow …

We present difference-frequency stabilization of free-running distributed-feedback (DFB)
diode lasers, maintaining a stable phase-lock to a local oscillator (LO) signal. The technique …

We present a simple technique for stabilization of a laser frequency off resonance using the
Faraday effect in a heated vapor cell with an applied magnetic field. In particular, we …

A high-power external cavity diode laser (ECDL) system with narrowband emission is
presented. The system is based on a commercially available high-power GaN laser diode …

A commercially available high-power GaN-based blue laser diode has been operated in a
simple Littrow-type external cavity (EC). Two kinds of EC configurations with the grating lines …
