Optical frequency comb generation with ultra-narrow spectral lines.
We demonstrate an optical comb source that generates 550 ultra-narrow spectral lines with a spectral linewidth of 1.5-3 kHz, spanning over the C-band. The source originates from a single-mode Brillouin laser processed with phase modulation, pulse compression, and four-wave mixing. As a result, the narrow linewidth of the Brillouin laser improves the phase noise of every spectral line of the fre...
متن کاملLong-term drift laser frequency stabilization using purely optical reference
We describe an apparatus for the stabilization of laser frequencies that prevents long-term frequency drifts. A Fabry–Perot interferometer is thermostated by referencing it to a stabilized He–Ne laser ~master!, and its length is scanned over more than one free spectral range allowing the analysis of one or more lines generated by other ~slave! lasers. A digital acquisition system makes the dete...
متن کاملSingle mode EDF fiber laser using an ultra-narrow bandwidth tunable optical filter
Single longitudinal mode (SLM) erbium-doped fiber (EDF) laser operation using a commercialized ultra-narrow bandwidth optical filter has been studied. A two-meter long EDF with an absorption coefficient of 24 dBm at the pump wavelength is used as gain medium. The ultra-narrow tunable filter is used for selection of a single longitudinal mode from the available spectrum of multiple modes, which ...
متن کاملOptical frequency comb technology for ultra-broadband radio-frequency photonics
A R TI CL E Abstract The outstanding phase-noise performance of optical frequency combs has led to a revolution in optical synthesis and metrology, covering a myriad of applications, from molecular spectroscopy to laser ranging and optical communications. However, the ideal characteristics of an optical frequency comb are application dependent. In this review, the different techniques for the g...
متن کاملQuantum cascade laser-based mid-IR frequency metrology system with ultra-narrow linewidth and 1 × 10⁻¹³-level frequency instability.
We demonstrate a powerful tool for high-resolution mid-IR spectroscopy and frequency metrology with quantum cascade lasers (QCLs). We have implemented frequency stabilization of a QCL to an ultra-low expansion (ULE) reference cavity, via upconversion to the near-IR spectral range, at a level of 1×10(-13). The absolute frequency of the QCL is measured relative to a hydrogen maser, with instabili...
