摘要：

Comparisons are made of the phase and amplitude fluctuations of a laser when it operates single mode and when it is mode locked with the same total average power. Despite the much lower signal-to-(spontaneous emission)-noise ratio of the mode-locked laser, the linewidth of each of the locked modes is the same as that of the single mode. The fluctuation of the total intensity of the mode-locked laser and the linewidth enhancement factor due to intensity fluctuation as recently analyzed by C. H. Henry (ibid. vol. QE-18, pp. 259-264, 1982) are the same in both cases.
