Abstract
The effect of random laser phase fluctuations on stimulated photon ech oes (SPEs) and on coherently added SPEs was studied and evaluated both experimentally and analytically with statistical methods. The general concept of describing laser frequency fluctuations as a stationary st ochastic process is presented and applied to three specific SPE config urations. The effect of phase fluctuations on erasing an SPE by cohere ntly adding another SPE, phase-shifted by 180 degrees relative to the first, is presented.
