Abstract:

Optical frequency comb generation via nonlinear wave mixing in high quality factor microresonators offers a route to take frequency combs out of the laboratory, which can potentially revolutionize a diverse set of applications, including optical frequency synthesis and metrology, time-keeping, telecommunications, lidar, and radio-frequency signal processing, among others. Our research investigates the science frequency combs generated in chip-scale microring resonators fabricated in silicon nitride films on silicon substrates. Our research encompasses frequency combs from both anomalous and normal dispersion microresonators and explores fundamental comb phenomenology, power considerations and applications.
