| Popis: | International audience; We report what is, to the best of our knowledge, the first experimental demonstration of coherent combining of two mid-infrared difference frequency generators by active phase control in continuous-wave regime. Using the phase relation that is inherent to the nonlinear process, we are able to phase-lock and combine the idler waves by the sole phase control of one of the pump waves. This control is done by an all fiber electro-optic modulator. Combining is achieved with an excellent efficiency with a residual phase error of λ/28. |
