How to Achieve Narrow Linewidth in Lasers?

Blog Article

Achieving a narrow spectral linewidth requires careful laser design and stabilization techniques. Common methods include:

• 
  

  External Cavity Feedback: Using gratings or optical feedback to refine the laser’s wavelength.

  
  


• 
  

  Frequency Stabilization: Locking the laser frequency to a reference cavity or atomic transition.

  
  


• 
  

  Low-Noise Pumping: Reducing pump source fluctuations to minimize phase noise.

  
  

Technologies like distributed feedback (DFB) lasers and fiber Bragg grating (FBG) stabilization are widely used to maintain narrow linewidths. As research progresses, new techniques like integrated photonic resonators are pushing the limits of laser precision.
