Abstract We achieve a compact ultra-stable 420 nm blue diode laser system by immediately stabilizing the laser on the hyperfine transition line of Rb atom. The Allan deviation of the residual error signal reaches 1 Hz-level Allan deviation within 1 s averaging time, and the fractional frequency Allan deviation is $$1.4\times 10^{-15}/\sqrt{\tau }$$1.4×10-15/τ, which shows the best result of frequency-stabilized lasers based on the atomic spectroscopy without Pound–Drever–Hall (PDH) system. The signal-to-noise ratio of the atomic spectroscopy is evaluated to be 3,000,000 from the Allan deviation formula, which is the highest record, to the best of our knowledge. The frequency noise suppression characterization is demonstrated and the maximal noise suppression can be near 40 dB at 6 Hz. As a good candidate of pumping source, the ultra-stable 420 nm diode laser is successfully used in our Rb four-level active optical frequency standard system. The method can be easily extended to other wavelengths ultra-stable lasers with a Allan deviation of $$10^{-15}$$10-15 level retaining an atomic reference with low cost and low complexity while in the absence of an expensive and complicated PDH system.

AMIGO is a first-generation Astrodynamical Middle-frequency Interferometric Gravitational Wave (GW) Observatory. The scientific goals of AMIGO are to bridge the spectra gap between first-generation high-frequency and low-frequency GW sensitivities: to detect intermediate mass BH coalescence; to detect inspiral phase and predict time of binary black hole coalescences together with binary neutron star & black hole-neutron star coalescences for ground interferometers; to detect compact binary inspirals for studying stellar evolution and galactic population. The mission concept is to use time delay interferometry (TDI) for a nearly triangular formation of three drag-free spacecraft with nominal arm length 10,000 km, emitting laser power 2–10 W and telescope diameter 300–500 mm. The design GW sensitivity in the middle frequency band is [Formula: see text] Hz[Formula: see text]. Both geocentric and heliocentric orbit formations are considered. All options have LISA-like formations, that is, the triangular formation is [Formula: see text] inclined to the orbit plane. For all solar orbit options of AMIGO, the first-generation TDI satisfies the laser frequency-noise suppression requirement. We also investigate for each option of orbits under study, whether constant equal-arm implementation is feasible. For the solar-orbit options, the acceleration to maintain the formation can be designed to be less than 15 nm/s2 with the thruster requirement in the 15 [Formula: see text]N range. AMIGO would be a good place to test the feasibility of the constant equal-arm option. Fuel requirement, thruster noise requirement and test mass acceleration actuation requirement are briefly considered. From the orbit study, the solar orbit option is the mission orbit preference. We study the deployment for this orbit option. After a last-stage launch from 300 km Low Earth Orbit (LEO), each S/C’s maneuver to an appropriate 2-degree-behind-the-Earth AMIGO formation in 95 days requires only a [Formula: see text]v of about 80 m/s.
