Abstract

We have developed a sub-shot-noise diode laser system and used it to perform sub-shot-noise FM spectroscopy. By inducing FM sidebands on a direct-current modulated external-cavity diode laser and injection locking a slave laser, we have suppressed the residual AM in the master by 50 dB and achieved a noise level of 0.8 dB below the shot-noise level. We expect that such techniques will provide useful and practical tools for future precision measurements and novel atom-photon interaction experiments.
