Abstract
An injection seeded Nd:YAG laser oscillator has been set up and frequency stabilized following an rf-sideband scheme. This dual rod oscillator emits pulses with duration and energy. The beam quality is almost diffraction limited . The frequency stability was characterized with a heterodyne method to root mean square (rms). This oscillator will serve as the front end for a series of lidar devices for spectrally sensitive measurements.
