The invention discloses a
laser frequency stabilizing method and optical
system for improving performance of an
optical pumping cesium beam
atomic clock. According to the method, a detected
fluorescence signal of the
optical pumping atomic clock is divided into two paths, one path of
fluorescence signal is input into a
microwave cavity of the
optical pumping atomic clock through a feedback deviation correction loop, and the other path of
fluorescence signal is input into the spectrum input end of a
laser frequency stabilization module;
laser output by a laser device sequentially passes an
isolator (1), a
delay wave plate (6) and a polarizing
beam splitter (7), and is divided into two beams, one beam is used as detection light and enters a light pumping atomic
clock detection area, and theother beam is focused by a lens, enters an acousto-optic modulator (9) for
frequency shift output and then collimated into parallel light by a lens, and the parallel light is used as pumping light andenters a light pumping atomic
clock pumping area. According to the invention, only one AOM device is added, and two sets of complex saturated absorption
spectrum light paths and one laser are omitted, so that the
system complexity of the whole
clock is reduced, the cost is reduced, and the
system reliability is improved.
