The experimental results show that, the phase noise of a 10 GHz RF tone can be filtered by at least 10 dB at 200 kHz offset frequency. A theoretical analysis on the limits of phase noise filtering due to the spontaneous emission and the frequency mismatch between the laser cavity modes and the synthesizer frequency is also included.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMicrowavesMode-Locked LasersOscillatorsPhase NoiseRF (Radio Frequency)Article10.1002/mop.310012-s2.0-85040343885
