Abstract
Tunable microwave generation and frequency up-conversion are demonstrated utilizing a monolithically integrated two-section DFB laser. The frequency of the microwave signal is tuned from 13 GHz to 40 GHz, which can be further improved by adjusting the wavelengths of the DFB lasers. Utilizing the sideband optical injection locking technique, frequency-doubled microwave signals with low phase noise of −100.9 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz and narrow linewidth of 102 Hz are obtained. In addition, the tunable range of frequency-doubled and frequency-quadrupled microwave signals are also investigated respectively.
