Study on the detuning-dependent properties of a temporal dissipative Kerr soliton in an optical microresonator

Tobias Kippenberg, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, John David Jost

Temporal dissipative Kerr solitons in a continuous-wave laser-driven nonlinear optical microresonator enable compact, high-repetition rate sources of ultrashort pulses and coherent broadband optical frequency combs. A central parameter in the soliton forma ...

Wavelength and Pump Power Characterization of Low-phase-noise Kerr Frequency Comb Lines

Yan Yan, Tobias Kippenberg, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Maxim Karpov, Lin Zhang

We characterize a low-phase-noise Kerr frequency comb for carrying data channels. Results show pump wavelength detuning region grows slightly at higher pump power and the phase noise stays relatively unchanged over pump wavelength detuning region. ...

Generation of an optical frequency comb in the green with silicon nitride microresonators

Nicolas Volet, Michail Zervas, Tobias Kippenberg, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Hairun Guo

The first realization of a green-light frequency comb is reported in a silicon nitride ring microresonator, from third-order non-linear interaction of a near-infrared 1-THz spacing Kerr comb spanning 2/3 of an octave. ...

Molecular Optomechanics with Plasmons: Backaction at the nanoscale

Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Tobias Kippenberg, Nicolas Piro Mastracchio

The plasmonic systems used in surface-enhanced Raman scattering are shown to be quivalent to optomechanical cavities. The new backaction force of the plasmon on the molecular vibration could lead to coherent amplification of vibrational motion. ...

Counting the cycles of light using a self-referenced optical microresonator

Tobias Kippenberg, Tobias Herr, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Victor Brasch, John David Jost, Caroline Marie Anne Lecaplain

Phase coherently linking optical-to-radio frequencies with femtosecond mode-locked laser frequency combs has enabled counting the cycles of light and is the basis of optical clocks, absolute frequency synthesis, tests of fundamental physics, and improved s ...

All-optical stabilization of a soliton frequency comb in a crystalline microresonator

Tobias Kippenberg, Tobias Herr, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Victor Brasch, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, John David Jost, Caroline Marie Anne Lecaplain

We demonstrate the all-optical stabilization of a low-noise temporal soliton based microresonator based optical frequency comb in a crystalline resonator via a new technique to control the repetition rate. This is accomplished by thermally heating the micr ...

Frequency combs and platicons in optical microresonators with normal GVD

Tobias Kippenberg

We predict the existence of a novel type of the flat-top dissipative solitonic pulses, "platicons", in microresonators with normal group velocity dispersion (GVD). We propose methods to generate these platicons from cw pump. Their duration may be altered s ...

Photonic chip-based optical frequency comb using soliton Cherenkov radiation

Tobias Kippenberg, Tobias Herr, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Victor Brasch, Michael Wolfgang Geiselmann

Optical solitons are propagating pulses of light that retain their shape because nonlinearity and dispersion balance each other. In the presence of higher-order dispersion, optical solitons can emit dispersive waves via the process of soliton Cherenkov rad ...
