Abstract
We report what is believed to be the first demonstration of laser frequency stabilization directly to persistent spectral holes in a solid-state material. The frequency reference material was deuterated CaF2: Tm3+ prepared with 25-MHz-wide persistent spectral holes on the H63→H43 transition at 798 nm. The beat frequency between two lasers that were independently locked to persistent spectral holes in separate crystal samples showed typical root Allan variances of 780±120Hz for 20–50-ms integration times.
