High frequency optoelectronic oscillators based on the optical feedback of semiconductor mode-locked laser diodes

Optical self seeding feedback techniques can be used to improve the noise characteristics of passively mode-locked laser diodes. External cavities such as fiber optic cables can increase the memory of the phase and subsequently improve the timing jitter. In this work, an improved optical feedback ar...
