Abstract
An absorption mechanism based on second-harmonic generation (ASHG) is successfully implemented as a buffer reservoir in a solid-state Er,Yb:Glass laser emitting at telecom wavelength. We show that a slight ASHG rate conversion of 0.016% using a BBO crystal enables to cancel out the excess intensity noise at the relaxation oscillation frequency, i.e. 35 dB reduction, as well as to cancel the amplified spontaneous emission beating at the free spectral range resonances of the laser lying in the GHz range.
