Reconfigurable optical generation of nine Nyquist WDM channels with sinc-shaped temporal pulse trains using a single microresonator-based Kerr frequency comb

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Fatemeh Alishahi, Ahmad Fallahpour, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei, Cong Liu

Sinc-shaped temporal pulse trains have a spectrally efficient, rectangular Nyquist spectrum. We demonstrate the simultaneous and reconfigurable optical generation of multiple Nyquist-shaped wavelength-division-multiplexed (WDM) channels having temporal sin ...

Effects of erbium-doped fiber amplifier induced pump noise on soliton Kerr frequency combs for 64-quadrature amplitude modulation transmission

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Fatemeh Alishahi, Lin Zhang, Ahmad Fallahpour, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei

We experimentally investigate the effects of erbium-doped fiber amplifier induced pump noise on soliton Kerr frequency combs for 64-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) transmission. We find that the optical carrier-to-noise ratios (OCNRs) of the comb lin ...

Tunable insertion of multiple lines into a Kerr frequency comb using electro-optical modulators

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Yan Yan, Lin Zhang, Ahmad Fallahpour, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei, Cong Liu

We experimentally insert a flexible number of electro-optical (EO) comb lines into a Kerr frequency comb via EO modulation and demonstrate the use of combined Kerr and EO combs as light sources in coherent communications. The number of EO lines inserted in ...

Dependence of a microresonator Kerr frequency comb on the pump linewidth

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Lin Zhang, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei

We experimentally investigate the dependence of Kerr comb generation, comb linewidth, and coherent system performance on the pump linewidth in a microresonator. We find that the generation of the primary comb can have a larger tolerance to the pump linewid ...

Pump-linewidth-tolerant wavelength multicasting using soliton Kerr frequency combs

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Lin Zhang, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei

We experimentally demonstrate pump-linewidth-tolerant wavelength multicasting using microresonator-based soliton Kerr frequency combs. When Kerr comb lines serve as coherent pumps in a periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide, the linewidth of the mult ...

Dual-pump generation of high-coherence primary Kerr combs with multiple sub-lines

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Yan Yan, Long Li, Lin Zhang, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei

We experimentally generate high-coherence primary Kerr combs with multiple sub-lines by using dual pumps and demonstrate the application of a primary comb state in multichannel communications. We find that more than 10 primary comb lines can be generated w ...

Demonstration of optical multicasting using Kerr frequency comb lines

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Yan Yan, Zhe Zhao, Long Li, Lin Zhang, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei

We experimentally demonstrate optical multicasting using Kerr frequency combs generated from a Si3N4 microresonator. We obtain Kerr combs in two states with different noise properties by varying the pump wavelength in the resonator and investigate the effe ...

Experimental Generation of High-Coherence Sub-Prime Comb Lines with Multiple Sub-Lines in a Kerr Frequency Comb using Dual Pumps

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Yan Yan, Long Li, Lin Zhang, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei

The generation of primary sub-comb-lines with high coherence using dual pumps in a SiN microresonator is investigated. A total capacity of 400 Gbit/s has been experimentally demonstrated in coherent communications based on the generated combs. ...

Experimental Demonstration of 7-fold Multicasting of a 20-Gbaud QPSK Signal using Kerr Frequency Combs

Tobias Kippenberg, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Arne Kordts, Yan Yan, Zhe Zhao, Long Li, Lin Zhang, Amirhossein Mohajerin Ariaei

We experimentally demonstrate 7-fold multicasting of 20-Gbaud QPSK signals based on Kerr frequency combs generated in a silicon nitride microresonator. The effect of high phase-noise comb state on the multicasting performance has also been studied. ...
