Ultralow phase-noise mode-locked lasers are crucial for real-world applications. We present two accomplishments: (1) short-term FF CEP stabilization of a SESAM mode-locked Er:Yb:glass laser at 1.55 um with timing jitter below 3 as (1-3 MHz) and (2) a hybrid solution adding a FB technique addressing slowly varying sources of interference to the FF system that demonstrates 75 hours of stabilization with a minimally detrimental effect amounting to a timing jitter of 11 as.

We have demonstrated pulse-on-demand operation of a 2 μm AO Q-switched Tm: YAG laser. Burst pulse operation, the number of pulses in a packet, and pulse interval can be controlled by RF power modulation and pump control. The burst packet included up to 10 pulses at a pulse interval of 138 s. The pulse energy and pulse width of a single pulse in the packet were ~0.7 mJ and 70–150 ns, respectively. In addition, we have demonstrated that the envelope of the burst pulse train could be designed as required.
