摘要
A continuous-wave optical parametric oscillator (OPO) was phase locked to an optical frequency comb in the 830-nm region. The optical frequency of the OPO was controlled by changing the cavity length of the pump laser. The residual phase noise under phase locking was 220 mradrms and the energy concentration to the carrier was 95 Furthermore, the optical frequency fluctuations of a free-running OPO were measured by using an optical frequency comb that was phase locked to an atomic clock. The measured fluctuations were around 10 MHz in an hour.
