Comparative analysis of the DFB fiber laser and fiber-optic interferometric strain sensors [PDF]
The DFB fiber laser strain sensor is shown to provide an improvement in the minimum detectable length change by a factor of 275 at 2 kHz for an applied strain when compared with an interferometric sensor interrogated by at equivalent DFB laser.

Algorithm based comparison between the integral method and harmonic analysis of the timing jitter of diode-based and solid-state pulsed laser sources [PDF]
A comparison between two methods of timing jitter calculation is presented. The integral method utilizes spectral area of the single side-band (SSB) phase noise spectrum to calculate root mean square (rms) timing jitter. In contrast the harmonic analysis

Phase noise of four-wave mixing in semiconductor lasers [PDF]
A simple theoretical analysis shows that the linewidth of the conjugate wave produced in four-wave mixing in semiconductor lasers is equal to the linewidth of the probe plus four times the linewidth of the pump. Experimental results in good agreement with the theory are presented.
