Stable and ultra-stable laser systems for a mobile strontium optical clock

This thesis presents a realisation of the most demanding laser systems for a mobile strontium optical clock. First, stable 689 nm cooling lasers are presented: an amplified semiconductor diode laser and a prototype of the semiconductor disc laser (SDL/VECSEL). The first was stabilised to a novel min...
