specific Embodiment

[0047] The present invention uses a tunable semiconductor laser as the main laser, and the optical signal sent by the main laser first passes through the optical isolator, the purpose is to prevent the backward transmission light generated by various reasons in the optical path from adversely affecting the light source and the optical path system; The optical signal of the laser is amplified through the optical amplifier to ensure that the injection coefficient of the master-slave optical injection system can meet the experimental requirements; the amplified optical signal passes through the polarization controller to ensure that the optical signal output by the master laser is the same as that output by the slave laser. The optical signal has the best coherence; then through the adjustable optical attenuator, the injection power injected into the slave laser is changed; then the optical signal is input from the 1 port of the optical circulator to the slave laser connected to th...

Abstract

The invention discloses a generating method for an optical frequency comb with flexibly adjustable comb tooth spacing, and belongs to the technical field of microwave photonics. A master laser of a master-slave light injection structure emits a light signal to externally inject light disturbance into a slave laser, so that the slave laser is in a single-period oscillation state, and a light injection seed optical frequency comb is generated. Meanwhile, the slave laser is modulated by using a radio frequency signal of which the frequency is equal to integral multiples of a microwave oscillationfrequency corresponding to the single-period oscillation state, so that the performance of the light injection seed optical frequency comb is improved, and the light injection seed optical frequencycomb is enhanced into an optical frequency comb with flexibly adjustable comb tooth spacing. The invention also discloses a generating device for an optical frequency comb with flexibly adjustable comb tooth spacing. The generating device comprises a master laser, a polarization controller, an adjustable optical attenuator, an optical circulator, a slave laser and a radio frequency source.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microwave photonics, and more precisely relates to a generation method and a generation device of an optical frequency comb with a flexible and adjustable comb tooth spacing. Background technique [0002] The essence of an optical frequency comb is an ultrashort optical pulse laser. In the frequency domain, its spectrum is represented by several comb lines with equal frequency intervals, which are shaped like a comb. In the field of optics, the optical frequency comb is like a ruler, which can realize the measurement of the optical frequency. The research on the optical frequency comb as an important research content won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2005 (see [Wei Zhiyi. 2005 Nobel Physics Science Award and Optical Frequency Comb. Physics, 2006, 35(03); 213-217]). Optical frequency combs also have important applications in related fields such as precision ranging, microwave photonics arbitrary wave gene...
