Observation of quantum-limited timing jitter in an active, harmonically mode-locked fiber laser.
We report on the observation of quantum-limited timing jitter in a harmonically mode-locked soliton fiber laser with an ultralow-noise local oscillator. The effects of amplitude and phase modulation on the spectrum are described and compared with theory.
