Self-injection Locked Second-Harmonic Generation in Optically Poled Silicon Nitride Microresonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Camille Sophie Brès, Marco Clementi, Junqiu Liu, Edgars Nitiss

We present a narrow-linewidth second-harmonic source based on a laser diode injection locked to an optically poled silicon nitride microresonator. The device is a compact, highly-coherent dual-wavelength source, with high conversion efficiency up to 280%/W ...

High-useful yield and new autoionizing state of resonantly ionized tungsten

Reto Georg Trappitsch

In order to measure tungsten isotopic composition in presolar stardust grains that contain a limited number of atoms, we developed a new three-photon three-color resonance ionization scheme using titanium:sapphire lasers and the Laser Ionization of Neutral ...

Self-Injection Locking of a Gain-Switched Laser Diode

Andrey Voloshin

We experimentally observe a self-injection locking regime of the gain-switched laser to a high-Q optical microresonator. We reveal that the comb generated by the gain-switched laser experiences a dramatic reduction of comb-teeth linewidths in this regime. ...
