| Research Abstract |
We have demonstrated for the first time a mode-locked pulse laser with simultaneo-usly stabilized optical frequency and repetition rate by using a Cs atomic resonance and an acetylene mol-ecular absorption line, respectively. We also successfully demonstrated a 440 fs short pulse generation byemploying a saturable absorber in the laser cavity for narrowing the pulse width. Furthermore,we applied apulse source based on a frequency stabilized CW laser to coherent optical pulse transmission, and we have successfully demonstrated for the first time a 1.92 Tbit/s single channel transmission with 64 QAM signal.
