  • Opto-optical modulation of a saturable absorber for high bandwidth CEO stabilization of a femtosecond laser frequency comb
    Patent number: 9680287
    Abstract: A laser source that generates an optical frequency comb, comprising a pumped laser medium placed inside an optical cavity that incorporates at least one optically-controlled modulator, a detector generating an error signal, and a modulation optical source that is controlled by the error signal and whose radiation is directed onto said optically-controlled modulator thereby stabilizing the Carrier-Envelope Offset (CEO) frequency and/or the CEO phase and/or the repetition rate of said source.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 17, 2014
    Date of Patent: June 13, 2017
    Assignee: UNIVERSITÉ DE NEUCHÂTEL
    Inventors: Stephane Schilt, Martin Hoffmann, Thomas Sudmeyer
