Injection-locking is a powerful technique to amplify laser light while retaining its spectral properties. However, it can be sensitive to fluctuations in seed power, frequency, and diode temperature. Here we present an active stabilization method [1] inspired by the Hänsch-Couillaud technique that continuously monitors the injection-locking condition using only a few standard optical components. The scheme runs in the background, requires no modulation, and significantly improves robustness against environmental changes. We demonstrate reliable locking even under large perturbations to the seed frequency, power, and diode temperature.
