In this paper there are presented first results obtained with a phase noise measurement bench operating in X-band, realized in our laboratory, using double optical delay line and cross correlation. Phase noise floor using a microwave sapphire oscillator is better than -160 dB rad^2/Hz at 10 kHz from the 10 GHz carrier, using a 2 km optical delay line.
This work consists in the design, fabrication and characterization of mini-disk MgF_{2} resonators for integration into optoelectronic oscillator and first experimental results of implementation in microwave free spectral range oscillator with taper coupling optoelectronic oscillator.
