Comparative analysis of a laser frequency stabilization method using a mobile and a fixed Lorentzian
Abstract
A line profile scan with a fixed laser frequency is compared with a method in which the line profile remains fixed. Thus, mobile resonances are evaluated against frequency modulation. The results of the evaluation are then contrasted with radio-frequency experiments in order to optimize the error signal. Attention is given to offsets due to both frequency- and Doppler profile-modulation, and these data, compared with one another, can serve to reduce nonlinearity in such systems.
