Abstract

The spectral characteristics and stability of a frequency of intermode beats of a femtosecond Ti:S laser are investigated. An active method is used to obtain high stability. The frequency stability of intermode beats not lower than 5.8.10^-14 rms in 100s is achieved. Possible applications of the setup, such as measurement of large frequency intervals in the optical range, creation of optical frequency synthesizers, etc. are proposed. The physical principles for the creation of an optical clock of a new type using highly stable femtosecond Ti:S laser are considered.
