Abstract

Degradation Diode lasers Frequency Laser mode locking Laser noise Optical pulses Phase modulation Phase noise Pulse modulation Quantum well lasers
Mode-locked lasers are potentially viable in distribution of frequency reference signals in many distributed systems. Phase noise degradation of the reference signal distributed by a monolithically integrated electro-absorption (EA) modulator with multiple quantum well (MQW) laser diode is investigated. The FM noise degradation dependence on EA modulator bias voltage is correlated to pulse to pulse coherency time.
