SELF-REFERENCING FREQUENCY COMB BASED ON HIGH-ORDER SIDEBAND GENERATION

摘要

A frequency comb generator including a semiconductor, wherein the semiconductor outputs a frequency comb in response to frequency mixing of an optical field and at terahertz field in the semiconductor using a high order sideband (HSG) mechanism. The frequency comb spans a bandwidth sufficient for self-referencing and may be used in optical clock applications, for example.
