A method and system for injection-locking multiple optical amplifiers is disclosed. A master laser is employed to generate a continuous-wave output field. Optical modulators then produce first and second seed optical fields from the continuous-wave output field. The first and second seed optical fields provide an input to injection lock one or more optical amplifiers, optionally at different operating frequencies. Since the first and second seed optical fields are generated from the continuous-wave output field then the output fields of the optical amplifiers exhibit a high phase-coherence with each other and with the continuous-wave output field. Employing the first and second optical fields reduces the requirement to induce large frequency shifts on a single optical field. Techniques for phase-locking the output of the injection-locked laser systems are also provided to further reduce phase noise within the systems.
