Dependence of a microresonator Kerr frequency comb on the pump linewidth [PDF]
We experimentally investigate the dependence of Kerr comb generation, comb linewidth, and coherent system performance on the pump linewidth in a microresonator. We find that the generation of the primary comb can have a larger tolerance to the pump linewidth compared with that of the low-phase-noise comb.

Direct Kerr-frequency-comb atomic spectroscopy [PDF]
Microresonator-based soliton frequency combs - microcombs - have recently emerged to offer low-noise, photonic-chip sources for optical measurements. Owing to nonlinear-optical physics, microcombs can be built with various materials and tuned or stabilized with a consistent framework.

Kerr frequency combs and triangular spectra [PDF]
Nonlinear externally driven optical cavities are known to generate periodic patterns. They grow from the linearly unstable background states due to modulation instability. These periodic solutions are also known as Kerr frequency combs, which have a variety of applications in metrology.

Universal scaling laws of Kerr frequency combs [PDF]
Using the known solutions of the Lugiato-Lefever equation, we derive universal trends of Kerr frequency combs. In particular, normalized properties of temporal cavity soliton solutions lead us to a simple analytic estimate of the maximum attainable bandwidth for given pump-resonator parameters.

Switching dynamics of dark-pulse Kerr frequency comb states in optical microresonators [PDF]
Dissipative Kerr solitons are localized structures that exist in nonlinear optical cavities. They lead to the formation of microcombs¿chip-scale frequency combs that could facilitate precision frequency synthesis and metrology by capitalizing on advances

Transient regime of Kerr-frequency-comb formation [PDF]
Temporal growth of an optical Kerr frequency comb generated in a microresonator is studied both experimentally and numerically. We find that the comb emerges from vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field on timescales significantly exceeding the ringdown time of the resonator modes.

Kerr Superoscillator Model for Microresonator Frequency Combs [PDF]
Microresonator-based optical frequency combs, or "microcombs", have attracted lots of attention in the last few years thanks to their promising applications in telecommunications, spectroscopy and optical clocks. The process of comb generation in microresonators can be modelled in the frequency domain using coupled mode equations, and has also recently
