Multi-Wavelength Narrow-Spacing Laser Frequency Stabilization Technology Based on Fabry-Perot Etalon

Classical frequency-stabilized lasers have achieved high-frequency stability and reproducibility; however, their extensive wavelength spacing limits their utility in various scenarios. This study introduces a novel frequency-stabilized laser scheme that integrates a Fabry-Perot etalon (FPE) with digital control technology and wavelength modulation techniques. The FPE, characterized by multiple transmission peaks at minimal frequency intervals, provides stable frequency references for different lasers, thereby enhancing the system's flexibility and adaptability. An error signal is derived from the first-order differentiation of the FPE's transmission curve. A 180° phase difference was observed in the feedback output signal when the laser's central frequency diverged from the reference, determining that the direction of the frequency control was accordingly determined.Employing feedback control, the laser's output frequency is stabilized at the transmission peak frequency of the FPE. Experimental results demonstrate that this stabilization scheme effectively locks the laser's output wavelength to different transmission peak frequencies of the FPE, achieving 25 GHz wavelength spacing. The frequency stability is improved by two orders of magnitude on a second-level timescale, maintained within hundreds of kHz, equating to a frequency stability level of 10
