  text: "This paper experimentally investigates and interprets the e®ects of noise
    and non-\r\nlinearity in a silicon photonic optical test structure. For the analysis
    di®erent optoelectronic phase\r\nnoise measurement techniques are used. Our tests
    focuses on the performance of integrated opti-\r\ncal test structures using femtosecond
    pulses in the 1550nm spectral range. A primary objective\r\nis to understand the
    behaviour of silicon photonic waveguides that can be further employed in the\r\nimplementation
    of an optoelectronic phase-locked loop (OEPLL) in silicon photonics technology.\r\nA
    comparison of our results, as well as a discussion on the di®erent optoelectronic
    phase noise\r\nmeasurement techniques are presented. Our ¯ndings provide insights
    that can be leveraged to\r\noptimize the design and performance of ultra-low phase
    noise on-chip OEPLL systems locking\r\nto mode-locked laser (MLL) signals. In
    the future such systems can be essential for advanced\r\ncommunication and sensing
    applications."

  text: <jats:p>In this paper, the theory of phase-locking of a microwave oscillator
    on the interharmonics, i.e. non-integer harmonics, of the repetition rate of the
    optical pulse train of a mode-locked laser (MLL) is developed. A balanced optical
    microwave phase detector (BOMPD) is implemented using a balanced Mach-Zehnder
    modulator and is employed to discriminate the phase difference between the envelope
    of the optical pulses and the microwave oscillator. It is shown mathematically
    that the inherent nonlinear properties of BOMPD with respect to the microwave
    excitation amplitude can be used for interharmonic locking. The characteristic
    functions of the phase detector for interharmonic locking are derived analytically
    and are compared with the measurement results. An opto-electronic phase-locked
    loop (OEPLL) is demonstrated whose output frequency locks on interharmonics of
    the MLL repetition rate when an appropriate modulator bias and sufficient RF amplitude
    are applied. Thus, for the first time theory and experiment of reliable locking
    on interharmonics of the repetition rate of a MLL are presented.</jats:p>

  text: 'An analysis of an optical Nyquist pulse synthesizer using Mach-Zehnder modulators
    is presented. The analysis allows to predict the upper limit of the effective
    number of bits of this type of photonic digital-to-analog converter. The analytical
    solution has been verified by means of electro-optic simulations. With this analysis
    the limiting factor for certain scenarios: relative intensity noise, distortions
    by driving the Mach-Zehnder modulator, or the signal generator phase noise can
    quickly be identified.'

  text: Recently it has been demonstrated that an optoelectronic phase-locked loop
    (OEPLL) using a mode-locked laser as a reference oscillator achieves significantly
    lower phase noise than conventional electronic frequency synthesizers. In this
    paper a concept for an OEPLL-based frequency synthesizer is presented and it is
    investigated how it can be used as a local oscillator (LO) for THz transceivers
    in order to improve the signal quality in THz wireless communications. The concept
    of the OEPLL is presented and it's measured phase noise is compared to the phase
    noise of a laboratory-grade electronic frequency synthesizer. The measured phase
    noise spectra of both synthesizers at 10 GHz are then used to model LO phase noise
    at 320 GHz. Based on models of generic zero-IF transmit and receive frontends,
    THz signals with different modulation formats and Baud rates are simulated at
    system level using the modeled LO phase noise for the two LO approaches. Finally,
    the results are compared.

  text: This paper presents an ultra-wideband and ultra-low noise frequency synthesizer
    using a mode-locked laser as its reference. The frequency synthesizer can lock
    in the frequency range from 2 GHz to 20 GHz on any harmonic of a mode-locked laser
    optical pulse train. The integrated rms-jitter (1 kHz-100 MHz) of the synthesizer
    is less than 5 fs in the frequency range from 4 GHz to 20 GHz with a typical value
    of 4 fs and a minimum of 3 fs. This is the first reported wideband phase locked
    loop achieving sub-10 fs rms-jitter for offset frequencies larger than 1 kHz.

  text: An octave-band voltage-controlled oscillator is phase-locked on the envelope
    of the pulse train from a mode-locked laser. The locking scheme employs a balanced
    Mach-Zehnder modulator with two photodiodes as a phase detector. The phase.locked
    loop has a loop bandwidth of approximately 1MHz and an in-band phase noise of
    approximately -135dBc/Hz at all frequencies. The integrated jitter from 1kHz to
    100MHz is 21fs, 18.3fs and 13.8fs at 5.016GHz, 7.6GHz and 10.032GHz carrier frequencies,
    respectively. To the authors' knowledge, this is the best jitter performance reported
    for a PLL with MZM-based phase detection and the first reported PLL of this type
    featuring an octave-band frequency range.
