The Synchrolock-AP accessory locks the pulse repetition-rate of one “Slave” Mira or VItara laser to another “Master” Mira or Vitara laser, or to a “Master” external RF source
Femtosecond (Mira and Vitara) and/or picosecond (Mira only) operation
Three cavity length actuators provide jitter stabilization over a broad bandwidth and large dynamic range
User adjustable delay between locked pulse trains of up to 13 ns with around 22 fs resolution (for a 76 MHz cavity)
Simple fiberoptic coupling of slave output beam to the Synchrolock-AP detection system results in minimal losses and ease of use
Unique feedback locking mechanism locks to the 9th harmonic of the input signal for enhanced signal to noise performance and tighter synchronization between slave and master oscillators
User-friendly GUI enables automatic locking acquisition, delay control and system monitoring
