Patent number: 6084893Abstract: An apparatus for and a method of stabilizing the laser power and frequency of a radio frequency excited laser, which are adapted to lock the laser power and frequency of the laser at the vertex of a laser gain curve using an optogalvanic effect generated from the laser itself, thereby stabilizing the laser power and frequency without requiring any specific unit to be arranged inside or outside a cavity of the laser. A capacitor is coupled to a radio frequency inlet of the radio frequency discharge tube. The capacitor serves to induce a part of radio frequency energy, introduced into the radio frequency discharge tube, toward a detector, so that the optogalvanic signal is measured, based on the induced signal, after removing radio frequency components from the induced signal by the detector, thereby enabling a measurement of a variation in input radio frequency energy caused by the optogalvanic effect.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 1998Date of Patent: July 4, 2000Assignee: Korea Research Institute of Standards and ScienceInventors: Jong Woon Choi, Young Boong Chung, Jeong Ser Park, Strzelec Marek, Kopica Mirek

Patent number: 5818858Abstract: A device and method for measuring a difference frequency having a simple structure and utilizing optogalvanic effect for measuring a difference frequency when carbon dioxide laser light of a single wavelength is varied in frequency by a measuring object. When a part of frequency varied laser light is mixed with an original frequency of laser light by self-mixing in a laser resonator, a strength of the laser light in the resonator is modulated to a difference frequency between the original frequency and the variation frequency. Since a current change in response to strength of light is generated by the optogalvanic effect in the laser resonator, when a frequency of optogalvanic current change is measured, the difference frequency can be measured.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 1996Date of Patent: October 6, 1998Assignee: Korea Research Institute of Standards and ScienceInventors: Jong-Woon Choi, Young-Pyung Kim, Yun-Myung Kim
