Abstract :
We have demonstrated a simple technique to stabilize harmonically mode-locked erbium fiber ring lasers. This technique requires less than 40 mV to tune a repetition rate Fabry-Perot etalon and the laser can be stabilized for an extended period of time with a very small drift in the optical frequency
