Modulation Instability Induced Frequency Comb Generation in a Continuously Pumped Optical Parametric Oscillator
S. Mosca, M. Parisi, I. Ricciardi +7
Continuously pumped passive nonlinear cavities can be harnessed for the creation of novel optical frequency combs. While most research has focused on third-order "Kerr" nonlinear i…
Direct generation of optical frequency combs in nonlinear cavities
S. Mosca, I. Ricciardi, M. Parisi +4
Quadratic nonlinear processes are currently exploited for frequency comb transfer and extension from the visible and near infrared regions to other spectral ranges where direct com…
Walk-off-induced modulation instability, temporal pattern formation, and frequency comb generation in cavity-enhanced second-harmonic generation
F. Leo, T. Hansson, I. Ricciardi +4
We derive a time-domain mean-field equation to model the full temporal and spectral dynamics of light in singly resonant cavity-enhanced second-harmonic generation systems. We show…
Sub-kHz linewidth narrowing of a mid-infrared OPO idler frequency by direct cavity stabilization
I. Ricciardi, S. Mosca, M. Parisi +4
We stabilize the idler frequency of a singly-resonant optical parametric oscillator directly to the resonance of a mid-infrared Fabry-Pérot reference cavity. This is accomplished b…
