Abstract
The design of ultra high Q factor fiber ring resonators is described. The resonators are characterized with a microwave frequency modulation technique, which allows a precise measurement of their performance. Optoelectronic oscillators are then realized. The phase noise performance is compared to the results obtained with lower Q factor resonators, and the relatively high intra-cavity bandwidth noise is discussed.
