Carrier-envelope phase control of femtosecond mode-locked lasers and direct optical frequency synthesis
We stabilized the carrier-envelope phase of the pulses emitted by a femtosecond mode-locked laser by using the powerful tools of frequency-domain laser stabilization. We confirmed control of the pulse-to-pulse carrier-envelope phase using temporal cross correlation. This phase stabilization locks the absolute frequencies emitted by the laser, which we used to perform absolute optical frequency ...
متن کاملIntensity noise of mode-locked fiber lasers.
Intensity noise of mode-locked fiber lasers is characterized systematically for all major mode-locking regimes over a wide range of parameters. We find that equally low-noise performance can be obtained in all regimes. Losses in the cavity influence noise strongly without a clear trace in the pulse characteristics. Given that high-energy fiber laser oscillators reported to date have utilized la...
متن کاملLow phase noise hybrid silicon mode-locked lasers
In this paper, we review recent results on hybrid silicon mode-locked lasers with a focus on low phase noise optical pulse generation. Taking a high level design approach to lowering phase noise, we show the need for long on-chip optical delay lines for mode-locked lasers to reach and overcome material limits. Key results include demonstration of the longest (cavity length 9 cm) integrated on-c...
متن کاملDispersion, coherence and noise of Fourier domain mode locked lasers.
We report on the effect of chromatic dispersion on coherence length and noise of Fourier Domain Mode Locked (FDML) lasers. An FDML laser with a sweep range of 100 nm around 1550 nm has been investigated. Cavity configurations with and without dispersion compensation have been analyzed using different widths of the intra-cavity optical band-pass filter. The measurements are compared to non-FDML ...

damage. Again, the fsiled lasers could have been selected with a 200h burn-in, using (&) > 150% or degradation rates p > 2 x lO-3/h as a criterion. In summary, extension of the vertical near field and facet protection with ZnSe/Al,O, enhanced the facet stability. Long resonators allowed stable nionomode emission above 300mW. Aging tests at 40 and 70°C demonstrate that in this way, with output p...
