主权项

1. A fiber-based laser system, comprising:
a passively mode locked fiber laser having a pulse repetition frequency, PRF, greater than about 110 MHz, wherein an output of said passively mode locked fiber laser comprises a carrier envelope offset frequency, fceo, said passively mode locked fiber laser comprising an optical cavity having intra-cavity components configured to modify and stabilize said carrier envelope offset frequency, based on one or more signals representative of a variation of said carrier envelope offset frequency.
