Abstract

We broaden the linewidth of an external cavity diode laser using frequency-shifted feedback from an intracavity acousto-optic modulator. The configuration employed allows for wider tunability than has been previously reported, allowing for easy tuning to the D1 or D2 line of ⁸⁵Rb and ⁸⁷Rb. We demonstrate the usefulness of the laser for optical pumping of Zeeman-split lines in the kilogauss regime.
