Solid-state laser intensity stabilization at the 10^-8 level

Abstract

A high-power, low-noise photodetector, in conjunction with a current shunt actuator, is used in an ac-coupled servo to stabilize the intensity of a 10^-W cw Nd:YAG laser. A relative intensity noise of 1×10^-8 Hz^-1/2 at 10 Hz is achieved.
