Linewidth narrowing in Brillouin fiber lasers
Abstract:
A numerical model of the connection between the phase of the incident pump field to that of the emitted Stokes wave has been derived from the usual three-wave model of stimulated Brillouin scattering. The model shows that the phase noise of the pump laser is transferred to the Stokes wave after being strongly reduced and smoothed under the combined influence of the acoustic damping and the cavity feedback. The theoretical pbkp_rediction was quantitatively validated by experiments in which the response of a Brillouin fiber ring laser to a frequency modulation of the pump field is recorded.
