摘要
By comparing the noise power spectra of the fundamental pulses and those of the second-harmonic pulses, the peak intensity fluctuation, the pulse-width fluctuation, the pulse timing jitter, and the cross correlation between the pulse width and the peak intensity fluctuations of a mode-locked pulse train can be separately quantified. The noise characteristics of an actively mode-locked Nd:YLF laser are presented to demonstrate this technique. (C) 1995 Optical Society of America
