A method for stabilizing a laser frequency using sub-Doppler spectral
spectrum of atoms, and a laser frequency stabilization device used in the
method which is comprised of a gas charged cell, a laser, a laser
frequency adjusting means, a laser beam dividing means for dividing the
laser beam into a pump beam and a probe beam, a photo detector for
measuring intensity of the probe beam after passed through the cell, an
ON/OFF means for cutting off the pumping beam at a constant time
interval, a computing means for obtaining the intensity of the probe
beam, a demodulated signal of the probe beam, the difference in intensity
between the probe and pumping beam, and a difference in demodulated
signal, and a feedback means which feeds back the information to the
laser frequency adjusting means, thereby stabilizing the frequency of the
laser.
