We present an all-analog phase bias locking scheme where error signals are obtained from the beat between the optical carrier and optical tones generated by an auxiliary 2 MHz 𝑅𝐹 tone to lock the phases of all three involved interferometers for operation up to 10 GHz. With the developed method, we demonstrate an I/Q modulator in carrier-suppressed single-sideband mode, where the suppressed carrier and sideband are locked at optical power levels <−27dB\r\n relative to the transmitted sideband. We describe a simple analytical model for calculating the error signals and detail the implementation of the electronic circuitry for the implementation of the method.","lang":"eng"}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2208.11591","open_access":"1"}],"date_published":"2023-01-01T00:00:00Z","publication_status":"published","issue":"1","publisher":"Optica Publishing Group","scopus_import":"1","oa":1,"oa_version":"Preprint","date_created":"2024-01-08T13:19:14Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","title":"Analog stabilization of an electro-optic I/Q modulator with an auxiliary modulation tone","quality_controlled":"1","status":"public"}
