Abstract :
A review of progress in laser stabilization techniques and laser frequency measurement is given. Methods for relating laser frequencies to the time standard and methods for absolute laser frequency stabilization are described. Experimental information on reproducibility and noise characteristics is reported. Application to frequency and wavelength standards is discussed.
