We present experimental results of coupled opto-electronic oscillators (COEO) constructed with a semiconductor optical amplifier based ring laser, a semiconductor Fabry-Perot laser, and a semiconductor colliding pulse mode-locked laser.
EDFA-based coupled opto-electronic oscillator (COEO) can generate picosecond optical pulses and microwave signals. The phase noise of COEO is better than -135 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz away from the carrier.
EDFA-based coupled opto-electronic oscillator (COEO), an integrated optical and microwave oscillator that can generate picosecond optical pulses, is presented. the phase noise measurements of COEO show better performance than synthesizer-driven mode-locked laser.
We describe and demonstrate a novel device in which a microwave oscillation is generated and is directly coupled with an optical oscillation, and vise versa.
These experiments demonstrate that COEOs are promising compact sources for generating low jitter optical pulses and low phase noise RF/millimeter wave signals.
