Abstract

A self-made diode-pumped Nd:YAG-KTP laser is frequency stabilized by locking its intracavity-doubled output to the center of Doppler-broadened transitions of molecular iodine near 532 nm. The first harmonic locking induces dither of the laser frequency and the external FM spectroscopy locking is in progress. The laser system and locking technique are simple and can be attractive for certain applications.
