摘要：

We report the efficient operation of a continuous-wave, single-frequency, diode-pumped Nd:FAP laser at 1.126 mu m. When frequency quadrupled, such a laser might be used as a local oscillator for an optical frequency standard based on the single-photon S-2(1/2)-D-2(5/2) electric quadrupole transition of a trapped and laser-cooled Hg-199(+) ion. Since the frequencies of the atomic transition and the laser are harmonically related, this scheme helps to simplify the measurement of the S-D clock transition frequency by a phase-coherent chain to the cesium primary frequency standard. OCIS codes: 020.7010, 140.3480, 140.3580, 190.4160, 300.6520.
