Fig. 6, panel (b)

SSB phase noise (dBc/Hz) against frequency (Hz, log axis): the repetition rate in the quiet point (blue), the limitation estimated from the pump laser RIN (green) and the estimated AM-to-PM conversion in the photodiode, the microwave amplitude noise scaled by $-25$ dB (grey). The dotted red line is the CW shot noise level. The arrows and labels of the print are not reproduced.
