论文摘要
我们提出了源自双腔光学频率梳子发生器的高效脉冲源。这种方法克服了仅限于几%的效率的单个空腔梳子发电机的局限性。我们实现了与单个腔设计相比,GHz重复率的产量高100倍以高于100倍的脉冲,并通过改变了腔内电磁调制器的调制深度来证明脉冲宽度的调整。这些结果提供了波长无形的设计,具有紧凑的足迹,用于开发用于时间,计量和激光雷达应用的便携式脉冲激光系统。
We present a high efficiency source of picosecond pulses derived from a dual cavity optical frequency comb generator. This approach overcomes the limitations of single cavity comb generators that are restricted to efficiencies of a few percent. We achieve picosecond pulses with GHz repetition rates offering over a hundred times higher output efficiency than a single cavity design and demonstrate tuning of pulse width by varying the modulation depth of the intra-cavity electro-optic modulator. These results provide a wavelength-agnostic design with a compact footprint for the development of portable picosecond pulsed laser systems for timing, metrology, and LIDAR applications.
