Pulse-amplitude equalization by negative impulse modulation for rational harmonic mode locking

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We propose a novel technique based on negative impulse modulation for pulse repetition rate multiplication by rational harmonic mode locking with pulse-amplitude-equalized pulses directly from the laser cavity. We have generated a pulse train of 15GHz with more than 16dB suppression of unwanted amplitude modulation spurs by using a 1GHz RF signal. This is the highest suppression ratio for a repetition rate multiplication factor of 15 to our knowledge.
