Abstract
The recent series of successful experimental observations of optical squeezed states1 opens up the exciting possibility of improving the sensitivity limits of a number of measurement schemes where the limiting noise is set by quantum mechanically induced fluctuations. One such technique which might benefit from quantum noise reduction is frequency modulation laser absorption spectroscopy (FMS).2 For this method, a tunable laser is frequency modulated and then passed through a medium with weakly absorbing spectroscopic features.
