Abstract
Light shifts in a diode-laser-pumped Rb-87 maser under the various con ditions of laser intensities and frequency detunings were measured, an d a linear dependence of the maser frequency on the laser intensities and frequencies was derived. The pulling coefficient of the maser freq uency from the laser was found to be about 2.9 x 10(-3), and the light shift could be minimized when the laser frequency was adjusted to nea r the center frequency of the resonance cell.
