15. Preliminary bench top demo result

16. Summary We developed an integrated phase reference, LLRF, laser control system for TXGLS. In last August, we run an initial bench top demo in Tsinghua Univ. The control loop functionality are demonstrated. The experiment measured sub-100 fs for our system. We are working with local company on the board and chassis. We will run further experiment with the new hardware and with the high power RF.
