Abstract
We present saturation and polarization laser spectroscopy experiments of indium vapor with a single color on the transition and with two colors at 410 and . The spectra observed by polarization spectroscopy are discussed in terms of a quantitative model. The line shapes observed with two-color spectroscopy can phenomenologically be described taking into account hyperfine changing collisions, velocity changing collisions, and dark resonances. As an application, we actively stabilized a diode laser on the resonances of saturation and polarization spectroscopy, and obtained long term frequency stabilities in the range.
