Gain-through-filtering enables tuneable frequency comb generation in passive optical resonators

In normal dispersion, modulation instability, which is a precursor of Kerr combs, is forbidden due to phase mismatch. Here, the authors show the compensation of such phase mismatch by introducing frequency-dependent loss using a notch filter, hence leading to effective parametric gain and comb forma...

Sumario:In normal dispersion, modulation instability, which is a precursor of Kerr combs, is forbidden due to phase mismatch. Here, the authors show the compensation of such phase mismatch by introducing frequency-dependent loss using a notch filter, hence leading to effective parametric gain and comb formation.
