Abstract
The cross-correlation measurements of jitter between pulses of two act ively mode-locked and Q-switched lasers were fulfilled at the differen t ways of their synchronization: by the common mode-locker drive signa l and by the electrical sync pulse. Due to prelase stabilization by th e negative feedback loop the fluctuations of ultrashort pulse timing r elatively mode-locker drive signal have been reduced to +/-10-15 ps. T he accuracy +/-130 ps of the ultrashort pulse locking td the external trigger sync pulse have been achieved.
