Abstract

A novel time division multiplexing technique has been incorporated with optical serrodyne phase modulation to generate a single microwave tone with up to 1 MHz tunability. Sideband spurs due to finite phase reset time in ordinary serrodyne phase modulation have been suppressed to more than 40 dB below the carrier. These results show that endless phase modulation can easily be achieved using this novel technique.
