  • Abstract
    An external modulation of a c.w. injection laser is described which allows a strong reduction of the excess noise of the laser beam. KDP was used as a modulator and the modulating voltage was proportional to the noise voltage across the load resistor of the photodetector of the beam opposite the modulated one.
