Abstract:
The combined effects of the pump noise suppression and injection locking technique on the intensity noise of a diode pumped Nd:YVO4 microchip laser are theoretically and experimentally investigated. Complete cancellation of the relaxation oscillation peak is experimentally achieved. Very good agreement between experimental results and theoretical predictions of a fully quantum model describing lasers with injected signal is found.
