Abstract

Electro-Optic (EO) sampling is a potentially powerful technique to characterize very high speed electrical wave forms in the time domain and to examine wave forms internal to integrated circuits, where external connections cannot be made. It is more attractive when the semiconductor laser is used as a laser source because of its compactness, inexpensiveness and arbitrary repetition rate for gain-switched operation. However such laser systems have limitations for practical use, i.e. the poor voltage sensitivity, which is caused by laser power. Noise suppression is the most important point in EO sampling system using a laser diode.
