Noise and stability of actively modelocked fiber lasers
The timing jitter of a modelocked laser is fundamentally limited by the amplified spontaneous emission in the laser cavity. While one cannot, even in principle, remove this source of noise, one does have control over the pulse timing by using filtering and modulation. In this thesis, we report on the advances made in developing the understanding of timing jitter and stability in actively modelo...
متن کاملCarrier-Envelope Phase Stabilization of Modelocked Lasers
Carrier-envelope phase stabilization of few cycle optical pulses has recently been realized. This advance in femtosecond technology is important in both extreme nonlinear optics and optical frequency metrology. The development of air-silica microstructure fiber was an enabling technology for performing phase stabilization. The microstructure fiber provides a group-velocity zero within the spect...
متن کاملAttosecond timing jitter modelocked lasers and ultralow phase noise photonic microwave oscillators
Photonic microwave oscillator based on optical frequency comb and ultrastable optical reference cavity represents the state-of-the-art solution to generate X-band microwaves of ultralow phase noise. Such high-quality microwave source enables a range of applications in which frequency stability and timing accuracy are essential to performance. Wide use of this technology, however, requires compa...
متن کاملLight-mode condensation in actively-mode-locked lasers.
We show that the formation of pulses in actively mode-locked lasers exhibits in certain conditions a transition of the laser mode system to a light pulse state that is similar to Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC). The study is done in the framework of statistical light-mode dynamics with a mapping between the distribution of the laser eigenmodes to the equilibrium statistical physics of noninter...
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...
