  • 光频梳提供了光波和微波相干链接的桥梁, 它的诞生革命性地提高了人们对于光学频率和时间的测量精度, 深刻影响着当今世界科技的发展. 最早的光频梳产生于锁模激光器系统, 然而基于锁模激光器的光梳, 因其系统复杂、体积庞大和价格高昂, 一般仅限于实验室应用. 近年来一种新型光频梳应运而生, 并有望解决上述问题. 它是通过连续激光耦合进入高品质光学微腔而激发的, 在频域上通过四波混频产生等间距的频率分量, 在时域上则利用非线性效应平衡微腔色散而形成锁模, 这种新型光频梳被称为“微腔光梳”. 相比于传统光梳, 微腔光梳有着尺寸小、可集成、功耗低和重频范围大等优势, 它的出现标志着产生光梳迈向芯片级尺寸的时代, 并引起了科学界和工业界越来越多的关注. 本文首先概述了微腔光梳的产生与发展历程, 随后介绍微腔光梳在实际应用方面取得的进展, 最后对微腔光梳当前的问题进行总结, 并对未来发展进行展望.
    Optical frequency comb (OFC) has coherently bridged the gap between light and microwave. Its advent has brought revolutionary progress to the accurate measurements of optical frequency and time, and profoundly promoted the technological development of technology of the contemporary world. The earliest optical frequency combs are generated from mode-locked laser systems. However, optical frequency combs based on mode-locked lasers have typically been limited to laboratory applications, due to their complexity, large size, and high cost. In recent years, a new type of optical frequency comb has emerged to address these problems. It is excited by continuous-wave laser coupling into a high-quality optical microresonator, generating equidistant sidebands in the frequency domain through four-wave mixing, and achieving mode locking in the time domain by using nonlinear effects to balance dispersion. This novel optical frequency comb is named "microcombs". Compared with traditional optical frequency combs, microcombs offer advantages such as compact size, integrability, low power consumption, and a wide repetition frequency range. Their occurrence marks the era of the generation of optical frequency combs towards chip-scale size and has aroused increasing attention from the scientific and industrial communities. This paper is ended by summarizing the current challenges faced by microcombs and giving a prospective outlook on their future development.

    图 9  微腔光梳的噪声研究[59,83,84] (a) 微腔光梳合成微波的原理示意图, 连续激光在微腔中产生孤子脉冲, 随后将脉冲序列耦合到高速光电探测器上, 即可产生频率为光梳重频的微波信号, 这也是常用的光梳重频测量方法; (b)“安静点”操作抑制光梳噪声示意图, 在特定失谐下, 孤子重频对失谐变化敏感度最小, 相应光梳重频噪声最低; (c) 布里渊克尔孤子原理图, 泵浦激光先在微腔中激发布里渊激光, 再用布里渊激光泵浦微腔产生孤子光梳; (d) 注入锁定原理图, 泵浦激光通过电光调制器产生边带, 利用注入锁定效应将光梳梳齿锁定在调制产生的边带上

    Fig. 9.  Research on the noise of microcombs[59,83,84]: (a) Schematic diagram of synthesizing microwave signal using microcombs, a continuous laser generates soliton pulses within a microresonator, and this pulse sequence is subsequently coupled to a high-speed photodetector to generate microwave signals with a frequency equaling to the repetition rate of the microcombs, this process also serves as a conventional method for measuring the repetition rate of optical frequency combs; (b) schematic illustration of noise suppression in microcombs through "quiet point" operation, the microcomb's repetition rate exhibits minimal sensitivity to detuning under a specific detuning condition, which coincides with the microcomb state characterized by the lowest repetition rate noise; (c) schematic diagram of Brillouin Kerr soliton, the pump laser generates Brillouin laser in the microresonator, and then the Brillouin laser pump the microresonator to generate soliton comb; (d) schematic diagram of injection locking, the pump laser is modulated by electro-optic modulator to generate a pair of sidebands, the comb lines are locked to the modulated sidebands via injection locking effects.
