Single-branch Er:fiber frequency comb for precision optical metrology with 10^-18 fractional instability

August 01, 2017

Author(s):

Holly F. Leopardi, Josue Davila-Rodriguez, Franklyn J. Quinlan, Judith B. Olson, Scott A. Diddams, Tara M. Fortier

Laser frequency combs based on erbium-doped fiber mode-locked lasers have shown great potential for compact, robust and efficient optical clock comparisons...

A compact, thermal noise limited reference cavity for ultra-low noise microwave generation

March 23, 2017

Author(s):

Josue Davila-Rodriguez, Frederick N. Baynes, Andrew D. Ludlow, Tara M. Fortier, Holly F. Leopardi, Scott A. Diddams, Franklyn J. Quinlan

A 25 mm long, rigidly-held, ultra-stable optical frequency reference cavity is demonstrated. The cavity spacer has an easy-to-manufacture cylindrical shape...

Microresonator Brillouin laser stabilization using a microfabricated rubidium cell

June 17, 2016

Author(s):

William Loh, Matthew T. Hummon, Holly F. Leopardi, Tara M. Fortier, Franklyn J. Quinlan, John E. Kitching, Scott B. Papp, Scott A. Diddams

We frequency stabilize the output of a miniature stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) laser to rubidium atoms in a microfabricated cell to realize a laser...

Broadly tunable, low timing jitter, high repetition rate optoelectronic comb generator

October 01, 2015

Author(s):

Franklyn J. Quinlan, A. J. Metcalf, Tara M. Fortier, Scott A. Diddams, Andrew M. Weiner

We investigate the low timing jitter properties of a tunable single-pass optoelectronic frequency comb generator. The scheme is flexible in that both the...
