Tunable multispectral laser source |
摘要 |
An tunable optical frequency comb source includes a linear waveguide having an input leg to couple to a pump laser. A ring microresonator is evanescently coupled to the linear waveguide. The microresonator includes a ring shaped waveguide having a core material with a nonlinear refractive index to provide four-wave mixing to generate a cascade of independent laser beams at frequencies corresponding to the longitudinal modes of the microresonator. |

1. A tunable optical frequency comb source comprising:
a linear waveguide having an input leg to couple to a pump laser; a ring microresonator evanescently coupled to the linear waveguide, the microresonator including a ring shaped waveguide having a core material with a nonlinear refractive index to provide four-wave mixing to generate a cascade of independent laser beams at frequencies corresponding to the longitudinal modes of the microresonator, wherein one of the cascade of independent laser beams is tuned to a specified frequency corresponding to a frequency of the pump laser based on an operating temperature of the ring microresonator that modifies an optical path length of the ring microresonator. |
