Abstract
We describe frequency locking of a diode laser to a two-photon transition of rubidium using the Zeeman modulation technique. We locked and tuned the laser frequency by modulating and shifting the twophoton transition frequency with ac and dc magnetic fields. We achieved a linewidth of 500 kHz and continuous tunability over 280 MHz with no laser frequency modulation.
