Abstract :
Optical feedback effects on spectral properties of an AlGaAs semiconductor laser weakly coupled to a single-mode fibre resonator with a Fabry-Perot transmission bandwidth of 15 MHz are reported. FM noise spectrum, linewidth and resonator output measurements are found to be in good agreement with theory.
