Abstract
A new method of generating optical frequency comb by cascading a single dual-parallel Mach–Zehnder modulator and two intensity modulators is proposed. The intensity modulators are modulated by a frequency multiplication circuit of radio frequency. Theoretical model of the system is derived, and optical frequency comb with ultra-flatness and high side-mode suppression ratio can be obtained. The study results show that 72-line optical frequency comb with spectrum power variation of 0.26 dB, SMSR of 21 dB and frequency space of 4 GHz is gotten easily by adjusting the amplitude of radio frequency signal and the direct current bias of the modulators. The simulation result is in good agreement with the theoretical analysis model.
