Abstract
A feedforward modulation technique is used to suppress amplitude modulation associated with 40-GHz pulses generated from a subharmonically mode-locked semiconductor laser. It is shown that the amplitude modulation can be supp ressed by as much as 20 dB, The improvement of amplitude modulation is show n for different subharmonic numbers.
