Nothing to do with laser line width.
Merely indicating that the photodiode mixer can be used with a suitable LO to build an optical spectrum analyser front end.

With a suitable low noise tunable LO (laser) the frequency spectrum

I don't exactly get how the laser spectrum (line width?) can be
exploited to go beyond the photodiode bandwidth?
Could you explain that a little bit?
