摘要
The 10GHz modelocking of a fibre laser with timing jitters as low as 16fs (Deltaf = 100Hz - 100kHz) and amplitude jitters of 0.058% is reported. From the spur-free-dynamic-range (SFDR) measured for a signal (at 2.49GHz) sampled with the modelocked pulse train, we estimate an analogue-to-digital conversion resolution of 8 SFDR bits at 10Gsample/s.
