“…Soliton recoil, in turn, results in the change of comb repetition rate and in the increased sensitivity of the repetition rate to pump power fluctuations. Repetition rate fluctuation appears as increased phase noise of the RF signal demodulated on a photodetector and has significant practical ramifications [297][298][299][300]. The signature of DW emission in the time domain is modulation of the pulse CW background, Fig.…”

The experimental realization of a Kerr frequency comb represented the convergence of research in materials, physics, and engineering, and this symbiotic relationship continues to underpin efforts in comb innovation today. While the initial focus developing cavity-based frequency combs relied on existing microresonator architectures and classic optical materials, in recent years, this trend has been disrupted. This paper reviews the latest achievements in frequency comb generation using resonant cavities, placing them within the broader historical context of the field. After presenting well-established material systems and device designs, the emerging materials and device architectures are examined. Specifically, the unconventional material systems as well as atypical device designs that have enabled tailored dispersion profiles and improved comb performance are compared to the current state of art. The remaining challenges and future outlook for the field of cavity-based frequency combs is evaluated.

“…It is interesting to compare the phase noise of the Kerr frequency comb oscillator to that of a commercial COEO units (OEwaves Compact Opto-Electronic Oscillator) (see 24,25 for details) as the COEOs are among the best existing commercially available RF oscillators. The COEO units have architecture as shown in Fig.…”

We demonstrate a free running 10 GHz microresonator-based RF photonic hyper-parametric oscillator characterized with phase noise better than -60 dBc/Hz at 10 Hz, -90 dBc/Hz at 100 Hz, and -150 dBc/Hz at 10 MHz. The device consumes less than 25 mW of optical power. A correlation between the frequency of the continuous wave laser pumping the nonlinear resonator and the generated RF frequency is confirmed. The performance of the device is compared with the performance of a standard optical fiber based coupled opto-electronic oscillator of OEwaves.

“…To combat this limitation, several solutions have been proposed to refine and improve the performance of OEOs, including the incorporation of a highly selective whispering gallery optical filter in the optical segment of the oscillator [12] that can lead to extremely compact [13], broadly tunable [14] and low phase noise [15] devices with the possibility of exploiting as well opto-mechanical effects [16]. Coupled optoelectronic oscillators (COEOs), which simultaneously produce spectrally pure microwave signals as in a OEO and short optical pulses as in a mode locked laser, have also been proposed and actively researched during the last years [17][18][19][20]. Finally, multi-cavity or multiloop OEOs have been proposed [21], where a long cavity provides the required spectral purity and a short fiber cavity provides the required spectral separation between adjacent oscillating modes, what alleviates the narrowband requirement for the internal RF filter.…”

Abstract:We propose the use of both homogeneous and heterogeneous multicore fibers to implement multi-cavity optoelectronic oscillators. We present design equations and examples that show the potential for unique performance in terms of spectral selectivity, tunability and high-frequency operation.
