Abstract

Frequency stabilization of a single-mode dye laser is demonstrated using a simple magneto-optical forward scattering method. The dye laser was locked to the 2p4−3ss2, λ = 633 nm neon transition. Heterodyne beat-frequency measurements against a127I2-He-Ne meter standard laser showed a frequency stability of a few MHz.
