Abstract :
Generation of 40GHz optical pulses with ultra-low phase noise is demonstrated experimentally by a self-starting dual-loop OEO with balance detection. The pulses are achieved with the full-width-at-half-maximum of 7.23ps, extinction ratio of 19.8dB, optical signal to noise ratio of 45dB and timing-jitter of 25.4fs in the 100Hz to 10MHz range.
