Long-term femtosecond timing link stabilization using a single-crystal balanced cross correlator

Abstract

We demonstrate a self-aligned balanced cross correlator based on a single type-II phase-matched periodically poled KTiOPO4 crystal. The birefringence of the crystal generates a walk-off between the two orthogonally polarized pulses. This enables the balancing of the cross correlator with input pulses at the same center wavelength. As a first application of this single-crystal balanced cross correlator, we stabilized a 310m long optical fiber link for timing distribution with long-term stable 10fs precision.
