Self-injection locking and phase-locked states in microresonator-based optical frequency combs.
Microresonator-based optical frequency combs have been a topic of extensive research during the last few years. Several theoretical models for the comb generation have been proposed; however, they do not comprehensively address experimental results that show a variety of independent comb generation mechanisms. Here, we present frequency-domain experiments that illuminate the transition of micro...
متن کاملInjection-locked synthetic optical frequency comb
Optical frequency comb technology is investigated for the synthesis of optical pulses. The optical signals from multiple cavities are phase-locked by the injection of a common single frequency input, where the comb signals of the individual cavities are amplified and resonated by Raman gains pumped at different wavelength bands by using multiple tones of pumps centred at different wavelengths. ...
متن کاملFrequency Dynamics of Gain-Switched Injection-Locked Semiconductor Lasers
The frequency dynamics of gain-switched singlemode semiconductor lasers subject to optical injection is investigated. The requirements for low time jitter and reduced frequency chirp operation are studied as a function of the frequency mismatch between the master and slave lasers. Suppression of the power overshoot, typical during gain-switched operation, can be achieved for selected frequency ...
متن کاملColloquium: Femtosecond optical frequency combs
Recently there has been a remarkable synergy between the technologies of precision laser stabilization and mode-locked ultrafast lasers. This has resulted in control of the frequency spectrum produced by mode-locked lasers, which consists of a regular comb of sharp lines. Thus such a controlled mode-locked laser is a ‘‘femtosecond optical frequency comb generator.’’ For a sufficiently broad com...
متن کاملOptical Frequency Combs: From Frequency Metrology to Optical Phase Control
The merging of continuous wave laser-based precision optical-frequency metrology with mode-locked ultrafast lasers has led to precision control of the visible and near-infrared frequency spectrum produced by mode-locked lasers. Such a phase-controlled mode-locked laser forms the foundation of a “femtosecond optical-frequency comb generator” with a regular comb of sharp lines with well-defined f...
