Abstract
Polarization rotation via the Faraday effect was demonstrated for the first time as a technique for reduction of source noise in tunable diode laser spectroscopy. The technique was fully characterized by experiments and computer modeling. A comparison to other noise reduction techniques reveals that polarization rotation is potentially the most sensitive.
