Description
MOGLabs has developed new technology for stable injection locking of Fabry-Perot (FP) laser diodes. Injection locking has traditionally been plagued by extreme sensitivity to environmental drift: very small changes in temperature, alignment, or current can cause the amplifier diode to drift out of lock. We have developed an auto-tracking system that continually monitors the laser and makes tiny adjustments to the amplifier diode to maintain lock.
Combined with our stable seed lasers, the ILA delivers over 1W@461nm for Sr cooling and 400mW@399nm for Yb. These systems provide a compact and low-cost alternative to expensive SHG systems, with beam quality superior to that of TA systems.
We have demonstrated injection-locked systems at
- 370nm/100mW (Yb+)
- 399nm/400mW (Yb)
- 461nm/1000mW (Sr)
- 509nm/200mW (Cs Rydberg)
- 657nm/300mW (Ca clock)
- 689nm/100mW (Sr MOT)
- 698nm/100mW (Sr clock)
The versatile platform offers many configurations; please contact MOGLabs for further information on this new cost-effective alternative.
