Phase Noise Reduction of an Optical Frequency Comb Using a Feed-Forward Heterodyne Detection Scheme

A novel feed-forward phase noise reduction scheme is introduced to reduce the phase noise of an optical frequency comb. The phase noise of a single comb line is measured using a heterodyne technique, and the inverse of this signal is then applied to the entire comb. The method is capable of simultan...
