  • Method for coupling two pulsed lasers having an adjustable difference of the pulse frequencies, which is not equal to zero
    Patent number: 8515290
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for coupling a first and second laser (1, 2) having an adjustable difference of their pulse frequencies, which is not equal to zero, wherein the method comprises the following steps: derivation of a first harmonic signal and a signal of the Mth harmonic from the time progression of the light intensity of the pulses emitted by the first laser, mixing of the first harmonic signal and the signal of the Mth harmonic, in order to obtain a first mixed signal, derivation of a second harmonic signal and a signal of the Nth harmonic from the time progression of the light intensity of the pulses emitted by the second laser, mixing of the second harmonic signal and the signal of the Nth harmonic, in order to obtain a second mixed signal, wherein the first and second harmonic signal and the Mth and Nth harmonic are selected in such a manner that the frequencies of the first and second mixed signal are identical, wherein the method furthermore comprises regulation of the pulse frequen
