Abstract(in English) Research, using tandem satellites' on-board tracking laser interferometers, is aimed at gauging the infinitesimal variations in the relative velocities of these orbiting bodies, to accurately measure fluctuations in earth's gravitational field. A major part of this effort has involved the stabilization of semiconductor lasers' frequencies to Fabry-Perot etalons and atomic absorption lines, and obtaining from them, the requisite control signal, by directly modulating the oscillation frequency. Taking advantage of the etalon's short-term stability and tunability over a wide frequency range, and the Rb absorption line's stability over the long term, we succeeded in stabilizing the frequency of a semiconductor laser.
