We synchronize two passively mode-locked erbium-doped fiber lasers by adjusting only the cavity length to correct both the repetition rate and the phase. The interlaser jitter is less than 6 ps (1.3 times the pulse width) and is extracted from the cross correlation of the two lasers. The lock can be maintained for extended periods of time. These results are obtained by use of a novel acousto-optic-modulator-grating scheme, which provides an equivalent of 300 microm in cavity length tuning with a bandwidth of 10 kHz. These parameters are 30 times the length and 10 times the bandwidth of a typical piezoelectric transducer. |
