Abstract

Stabilization of laser frequencies is critical for sensitive Rydberg measurements, including in applications such as dissipative time crystal (DTC) dynamics, yet conventional approaches often require complex or costly hardware. We demonstrate a compact, low cost stabilization method using a scanning Fabry Perot interferometer (SFPI) to transfer lock a 960nm coupler laser to an 852nm probe. The lock suppresses coupler multi MHz free running drift and improves the Allan deviation by up to an order of magnitude, reaching <75kHz at 66s. Applied to DTC oscillations using a Rb 2 photon D2 transition, the second harmonic generated 480nm (from 960nm lock) reduces DTC frequency drift from >20kHz to a few kHz and lowers instability by more than an order of magnitude with a minimum Allan deviation of 0.2kHz at <10s. These results establish SFPI-based transfer locking as a practical and accurate approach for scalable multi laser Rydberg experiments requiring long-term stability in a compact and low cost system.
