Injection locking of violet laser diodes with a 3.2 GHz offset frequency for driving Raman transitions in 43Ca+.

Two cw single-mode violet (397 nm) diode lasers are locked to a single external-cavity master diode laser by optical injection locking. A double-pass 1.6 GHz acousto-optic modulator is used to provide a 3.2 GHz offset frequency between the two slave lasers. We achieve up to 20 mW usable output in ea...
