Application-driven development of microcombs. The arrows around the microcomb module indicate the relative importance of the power and number of comb lines for different applications, which include ...

Since the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded in 2005 for the invention of optical frequency combs, they have become a core technology in information systems. An optical frequency comb consists of a ...

(Nanowerk News) In the world of modern optics, frequency combs are invaluable tools. These devices act as rulers for measuring light, enabling breakthroughs in telecommunications, environmental ...

It may seem at times that there is a divide between the optical/photonic domain and the RF one, with the terahertz zone between them as a demarcation. If you need to make a transition between the ...

Key result A six-year-long research effort has seen researchers in Canada build a chip-scale device that can generate multiphoton entangled states. (Courtesy: Ultrafast Optical Processing Group) ...

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science has successfully developed a length measurement system that achieves a level of precision approaching the theoretical limit allowed by quantum ...

We consider the Lugiato-Lefever (LL) model of optical fibers. We construct a two parameter family of steady state solutions, i.e., Kerr frequency combs, for small pumping parameter h > 0 and the ...

A team from the Faculty of Physics and the Center for Quantum Optical Technologies at the Center of New Technologies, University of Warsaw has developed a new method for measuring elusive terahertz ...

For the first time ever, scientists have used a technique called "quantum squeezing" to improve the gas sensing performance of devices known as optical frequency comb lasers. These ultra-precise ...

Researchers have created a new ultra-broadband electro-optic comb that packs 450 nm of light precision into a chip smaller than a coin, paving the way for smarter, more efficient photonic devices. In ...
