Description
I. Description of Requirement
NRL Quantum Electro-Optics Section 5613 requires a complete, turn-key, stabilized laser system to transition recent quantum memory experiments towards a more scalable and versatile configuration with the use of Rydberg states. A turn-key system meaning laser, comb and all accessories are controlled from a central system or computer GUI where the laser parameters and locks can be implemented and diagnosed. The system has to be capable of 24h/7d operation within laboratory environment. The user interface has to feature an automatic lock of the comb to RF reference, remote locking of 480 nm laser and extension CW laser.
The system will be assembled and characterized at the factory to verify specifications of the complete system. It will be shipped and reassembled to working order at NRL site and include on-site training. The complete unit will provide controls for all locks, system parameters and diagnostics from a computer GUI and the parameters must be accessible with external commands so that the system can be utilized in an experimental sequence suitable to operate a quantum memory.
II. Performance Requirements
Laser specification (CW frequency doubled laser at 480nm), QNTY: 1
CW frequency doubled (SHG) laser with 800 mW output power at the wavelengths of 473-481 nm
• Output power at least 800 mW
• Coarse tuning of 8 nm over 473—481 nm, with mode hop-free tuning greater than 15 GHz
• Linewidth less than 100 kHz
• Output power stabilization
• Probe beam output at fundamental wavelength
• High quality digital Pound-Drever-Hall stabilization of SHG resonator length with automatic relocking
• Ability for fast frequency modulation of master laser (with protective circuit for laser diode)
Frequency Comb Specification (Difference Frequency Comb), QNTY: 1 (with extensio...
