10 GHz Monolithic Optical Frequency Combs using InAs/InP Quantum-Dash-Based Passively Mode-Locked Lasers stabilized to the 10-9 Level
01 January 2014
An optical frequency comb generated by an InAs/InP quantum dash based passively mode-locked laser is investigated. The comb spans ~1.1THz, with 110 modes spaced by ~10GHz, and shows a long-term stability of 3x10-9 over 1000s.
