Microresonator-Based Optical Frequency Combs

Science, 2011
The series of precisely spaced, sharp spectral lines that form an optical frequency comb is enabling unprecedented measurement capabilities and new applications in a wide range of topics that include precision spectroscopy, atomic clocks, ultracold gases, and molecular fingerprinting.

Mapping of the Optical Frequency Comb to the Atom Velocity Comb

15th International Conference on Ultrafast Phenomena, 2006
We present the experimental and theoretical study of the resonant excitation of rubidium atoms with fs pulse train in the conditions when the pulse repetition period is shorter than the atomic relaxation time. The velocity selective optical pumping of the ground state hyperfine levels and velocity comb-like excited state hyperfine level populations are

Electro-optic frequency combs

Advances in Optics and Photonics, 2020
Frequency combs are optical spectra composed of a set of discrete equally spaced lines. Such spectra can be generated by diverse sources such as mode-locked lasers, resonators, or electro-optic modulators. This last possibility has shown a growing interest in the recent years for its advantageous features in providing high repetition rates, intrinsic ...

Optical frequency comb at NIM

Digest of the LEOS Summer Topical Meetings, 2005., 2005
Absolute measurement of stabilized lasers' optical frequency is an important subject in metrology. The traditional tool for establishing the llnk between Cs atomic frequency standard and an optical frequency is harmonic frequency chain ['I. But, such a harmonic frequency chain is very expensive to built and complicated to operate.

Characterization of the Frequency Stability of a Multibranch Optical Frequency Comb

IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2020
Presently, ultra-precise optical clocks’ comparisons can be performed easily using the optical frequency combs (OFCs) as a transfer oscillator. In this scheme, different OFC branches are usually used to enable optical clocks’ comparison at different wavelengths.

Optical resonators for frequency combs

2006 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics and 2006 Quantum Electronics and Laser Science Conference, 2006
The development of high finesse resonators for broadband frequency combs enabled the extension of the versatile frequency comb technique into the extreme ultraviolet with all its implications. We describe new developments in this field.

Accuracy of optical frequency comb generation in optical fiber

Optics Letters, 1999
We evaluated the accuracy of an optical frequency comb in optical fibers by measuring the frequency shift after a sideband from an electro-optic modulator had passed through the fiber. We found that a frequency drift of a few hertz was due largely to a variation in the ambient temperature that corresponded to an increase in the square root of the Allan

Characterization of an optical frequency comb using modified direct frequency comb spectroscopy

Applied Physics B, 2009
We introduce a method for determination of the absolute frequencies of comb lines within the optical frequency comb spectrum. The method utilizes the experimental and theoretical approach of the velocity selective optical pumping of the atomic ground state hyperfne levels induced by resonant pulse train excitation.

Optical frequency metrology with optical lattice clocks and optical frequency combs

2012 Conference on Precision electromagnetic Measurements, 2012
Laser frequency stabilization and atom manipulation are important techniques for optical frequency metrology. We report on the development of an ytterbium (171Yb) and a strontium (87Sr) optical lattice clock at the National Metrology Institute of Japan (NMIJ). The result of absolute frequency measurement of the 171Yb lattice clock is shown.
