Abstract
We introduce laser frequency stabilization using continuously regenerated transient spectral holes in an inhomogeneously broadened resonance of a solid. Narrow spectral holes provide extreme frequency stabilization for time scales appropriate for spectroscopy, signal processing, laser ranging, and interferometry. This technique thus will have significant applications beyond the field of spectral hole burning.
