| We present progress on fiber-optic based systems for highly stable distribution of timing signals for accelerators. This system has application for linac-based sources of ultrafast radiation which require sub-100 fsec synchronization or for very large accelerators such as the linear collider. The system is based on optical fiber links that are stabilized with an optical interferometer with RF and timing signals distributed as modulations on the optical carrier. We present measurements of the stability of this link over distances of several hundred meters and discuss issues for testing the link over 10 km. |
