Quantum-Well Laser Diodes for Frequency Comb Spectroscopy

Abstract

We demonstrate simple optical frequency combs based on semiconductor quantum well laser diodes. The frequency comb spectrum can be tailored by choice of material properties and quantum-well widths, providing spectral flexibility. Finally, we demonstrate the mutual coherence of these devices by using two frequency combs on the same device to generate a radio-frequency dual comb spectrum.
