In-situ probing and stabilizing the power ratio of electro-optic-modulated laser pairs based on VIPA etalon for quantum sensing

Monitoring and stabilizing the power ratio of laser pairs is significant to high-precision atom interferometers, especially as the compact electro-optic modulated all-fiber laser system prevails. In this Letter, we demonstrate a novel method to in-situ probe the relative power of laser pairs and to stabilize the power ratio of two Raman lasers using a high-dispersion virtually imaged phased array (VIPA) etalon. Sub-microsecond resolution on probing laser power transformation during atom interferometer sequence is achieved and the power ratio of two Raman lasers (PRTR) is tightly locked with high bandwidth despite of environmental disturbances, showing an Allan deviation of $4.39\times 10^{-5}$ at 1000 s averaging time. This method provides a novel way to stabilize the PRTR and diagnose the multi-frequency laser systems for atom interferometers and could find potential application in broad quantum sensing scenarios.
