Abstract

An overview is given on investigation activities of author’s researcher groups at the PTB, the National Metrology Institute of Germany, for testing, developing and applying of diode lasers to be used as a light source in interferometry. After a short background about laser emission’s principle and types of diode lasers their spectral properties are described in detail with taking their using in interferometry into account. Then different methods of frequency stabilization of diode lasers are briefly discussed. Lastly several examples for application of diode laser interferometers for length measurements are reported.
