Abstract
We describe a novel method for semiconductor laser noise reduction that uses a combination of optical and electronic feedback. A Doppler-free Faraday resonance in Cs vapor provided both optical feedback and discrimination for an electronic feedback scheme incorporating FM sideband spectroscopy. The introduction of electronic feedback further reduced the low-frequency fluctuation noise power by more than 2 orders of magnitude, resulting in a linewidth of 1.4 kHz.
