✦ Synopsis
We demonstrate actively modelocked operation of an erbium-doped fibre ring laser using a novel multi-harmonic phase modulation technique. By mixing two harmonics of the fundamental cavity frequency and driving a phase modulator with this signal, improved stability performance is observed in terms of Bit-Error-Rate and timing jitter compared to conventional modelocking.
