Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach to overcome the trade-off between controllability and bandwidth in on-chip frequency comb sources. By using agile spectral multiplication of narrowband combs, exploiting the nonlinear dynamics of a multi-wavelength laser under modulated optical injection, the authors achieve spectral multiplication at frequency offsets from 26 GHz to 1.3 THz with nanosecond switching of the frequency offset. This method, compatible with generic platforms, paves the way for low-cost, compact, and power-efficient THz comb sources.
