Our scheme excludes the limitation of low difraction efciency and laser input intensity when an acousto-optic modulator is applied to shift the laser frequency from the resonance. We show the stabilization of a strong 795- nm laser detuned up to 550 MHz from the 87Rb 5S1/2 F=2→5P1/2F'=2 transition. The locking range can be modifed by controlling the bufer gas pressure. A laser line width of 2 MHz is achieved over 10 min.展开更多
