Abstract
A second-order optical phase-locked loop was constructed using 1320-nm diode-pumped miniature Nd:YAG ring lasers. Using the loop, a 140-Mb/s PSK homodyne transmission experiment was demonstrated over 28.6 km of single-mode fiber. With a loop natural frequency of 13 kHz and a damping factor of 0.6, the receiver sensitivity was -62.8 dBm, or 25 photons/bit. The authors believe this is the highest sensitivity obtained to date with any optical communication system. >
