Abstract

A monolithically integrated dual-channel optical frequency comb source is demonstrated in this paper. Three lasers are integrated on a single chip using a regrowth-free fabrication process in a master-slave-slave configuration. The master laser's power is split equally using a 1x2 multimode interference coupler and injection locks the two slave lasers. The slave lasers are gain-switched to produce dual optical frequency combs at 4.1 GHz and 5 GHz. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of a dual optical frequency comb source with all light sources monolithically integrated in a photonic integrated circuit (PIC).
