RESUMO
This work is part of the project for development of the first metrology reference for frequency standard around 532 nm in Brazil for the practical realization of the definition of the meter. The study was conducted at the Laboratory Interferometry (Laint) Inmetro, through an agreement with the Posgraduation Program in Metrology for Quality Industrial, PUC-Rio. In the scope of this project, the realization of a new reference length/frequency is made by the stabilization of a commercial laser Nd:YAG emitting radiation around 532 nm. The stabilization is performed on a component of a hyperfine transition of molecular iodine (127)I(2), according to the recommendations of the International Committee of Weights and Measures (CIPM- Comité International des Poids et Mesures).The iodine vapor is contained in an external absorption cell cooled to a temperature between -10°C and -15°C. This work presents the following stages of the project: Opto-mechanical assembly of the system and optical alignments. Detection and recording of signals with absorption cell at room temperature corresponding to iodine transitions around 532 nm. Characterization of Nd: YAG laser that is determining the frequency of the laser emission as a function of laser crystal temperature TLC, using for this purpose a meter wavelength (wavemeter). Preliminary measurements of the cooling system and temperature regulation of the iodine cell by a Peltier thermoelectric device. The automatic control of a test temperature of -13°C is achieved via LabView programming.
