Abstract :
An optical synchronization system based on the timing-stabilized distribution of ultra-short optical pulses has been proposed for next generation light sources, e.g. the European XFEL. The concept will be implemented and tested at FLASH at DESY. This paper describes the status of the optical master oscillator, which consists of a two mode-locked Erbium-doped fiber lasers running in parallel.
