Various examples of feed-forward systems that reduce phase noise in a laser field generated by a laser. These include feed-forward systems that utilize phase and/or frequency discriminators, filters, integrators, voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs), current controlled oscillators (CCOs), phase modulators, and/or amplitude modulators. It also includes systems that use both feed-forward and feedback phase noise reduction systems, tunable semiconductor lasers, and multiple, sequential feed-forward systems.
