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

Semiconductor laser chip stabilization by Si3N4 microresonator and Kerr comb generation [PDF]
The experimental study of the InPlaser diode stabilization by high-Q Si3N4 microresonator is presented. We demonstrate how this stabilized laser diode considered as a pump laser may be used for optical frequency comb generation in the same microresonator.

Actively stabilized wavelength-insensitive carrier elimination from an electro-optically modulated laser beam [PDF]
We demonstrate a simple and robust technique for removal of the carrier wave from a phase-modulated laser beam, using a noninterferometric method that is insensitive to the modulation frequency and instead exploits the polarization dependence of electro ...
