Accurate laser frequency locking to optical frequency combs under low-signal-to-noise-ratio conditions

C. Guo, M. Favier, N. Galland +7

We demonstrate a method for accurately locking the frequency of a continuous-wave laser to an optical frequency comb in conditions where the signal-to-noise ratio is low, too low t…

Phase noise characterization of sub-hertz linewidth lasers via digital cross correlation

Xiaopeng Xie, Romain Bouchand, Daniele Nicolodi +3

Phase noise or frequency noise is a key metrics to evaluate the short term stability of a laser. This property is of a great interest for the applications but delicate to character…

First international comparison of fountain primary frequency standards via a long distance optical fiber link

J. Guéna, S. Weyers, M. Abgrall +25

We report on the first comparison of distant caesium fountain primary frequency standards (PFSs) via an optical fiber link. The 1415 km long optical link connects two PFSs at LNE-S…

Photonic microwave signals with zeptosecond level absolute timing noise

Xiaopeng Xie, Romain Bouchand, Daniele Nicolodi +11

Photonic synthesis of radiofrequency revived the quest for unrivalled microwave purity by its seducing ability to convey the benefits of the optics to the microwave world. In this…
