Abstract
The modulus of the degree of coherence (DOC) of a kHz-linewidth laser is fully characterized for the first time by using a single test laser. By employing the obtained DOC, the power spectrum is reconstructed, and the phase-error variance for a short delay is analysed, which is important in coherent communication.
