Abstract:
An opto-electronic oscillator ( 10 ) comprising: an optical source ( 12 ) to generate an optical carrier signal having a carrier wavelength; an optical phase modulator ( 14 ) to apply a sinusoidal phase modulation to the optical carrier signal to generate two first order sidebands having a π phase difference between them; an optical phase shifter ( 16 ) comprising an optical resonator configured to apply a substantially π phase-shift to one of the first order sidebands at a preselected wavelength within an optical spectrum of said first order sideband; and a photodetector ( 18 ) configured to perform optical heterodyne detection of the optical carrier signal with both: said one of the first order sidebands substantially it phase shifted by the optical resonator; and the other of the first order sidebands, to generate an electrical carrier signal ( 20 ), and wherein a first part of the electrical carrier signal ( 20 a ) is delivered to an electrical output ( 22 ) and a second part of the electrical carrier signal ( 20 b ) is delivered to the optical phase modulator as a drive signal.

Claim (Index 13):
A method as claimed in  claim 12 , further comprising tuning the preselected wavelength within the optical spectrum of said one of the first order side bands at which the phase-shift is applied.
