Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Stabilization of an injection locked optical frequency comb is achieved through polarization spectroscopy of an active laser cavity, eliminating optical PM sidebands inherent in previous stabilization methods. Optical SNR of 35 dB is achieved. A monolithic AlInGaAs quantum well Fabry-Prot laser injection locked to a passively mode-locked monolithic laser is presented here. The FP laser cavity can be used as a true linear interferometric intensity modulator for pulsed light.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for producing a stable optical frequency comb having an adjustable comb tooth separation, comprising: a harmonically mode-locked laser (MLL) further including: a polarization discriminating semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA); a polarization discriminating resonant optical fiber cavity; an intracavity polarization discriminating mode locking component; and an RF oscillator operationally coupled to the mode locking component; an inje…
