We introduce a novel scheme which combines conventional Doppler dichroic atomic vapor laser lock (DAVLL) and nanofiber techniques for realizing frequency stabilization with sub-nanowatt laser power. The dependences of DAVLL signal on the total incident power of probe light and the quantification magnetic field amplitude indicate that the power for frequency stabilization could be minimized to only 15 pW. To evaluate the frequency stability of the locked laser, we calculate the Allan standard deviation, which shows that the relative frequency stability could reach 10−10 level at 10 s. This frequency stabilization scheme paves the road for future quantum optical device integration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
