摘要: We numerically and experimentally demonstrate efficient generation of an equalized optical comb with 150-nm bandwidth. The was generated by low-power, continuous-wave seeds, eliminating the need for pulsed laser sources. new architecture relies on creation higher-order mixing tones in phase-matched nonlinear fiber stages separated a linear compressor. Wideband enabled precise dispersion engineering multiple-stage parametric mixers.
