Electronic-Photonic Metrology
The Electronic-Photonic Metrology team focuses on generating precise RF signals with minimal timing uncertainty using various electrical, optical, or mixed electro-optical techniques, often starting from a highly precise reference clock in either the electrical or optical domain. A frequency synthesizer is then used to translate this reference signal to an arbitrary frequency without introducing much additional noise. This requires sophisticated architectures, which is one of our research focuses. Several projects for ultra-low jitter RF generation have been funded by DFG.
