Abstract: Disclosed herein is an all-digital phase and timing correction procedure for coherent averaging in dual-comb and multiheterodyne spectroscopy—applicable to any dual-comb spectroscopy setup. It can account for large frequency/phase instabilities of the used sources, yielding a significant reduction of the noise pedestal and an increase in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the radio frequency (RF) beat notes. This technique is computationally efficient and can be conveniently implemented either as a post-processing algorithm or in a real-time data acquisition and processing platform without the necessity of adding any additional optical elements to the dual-comb spectroscopy system. By implementing this technique, the performance of any comb- or comb-like-source-based DCS system with a sufficient degree of mutual coherence between the optical modes can be improved in terms of SNR and number of spectroscopically-usable RF beat notes. The described technique is compatible with a DC-centered RF spectrum, where the negative frequencies are folded to the positive domain to double the number of beat notes within the detector bandwidth. The technique enables coherent averaging over extended time-scales even for free-running combs, thus increasing the sensitivity of absorption and dispersion DCS measurements.

Abstract: A dual optical frequency comb light-emitting device includes a first optical-frequency-comb laser source that includes a first laser resonator having a first optical path length, a second optical-frequency-comb laser source that includes a second laser resonator having a second optical path length different from the first optical path length, and an optical coupler that causes a first portion of first optical-frequency-comb laser light emitted from the first laser resonator to enter the second laser resonator. The first optical-frequency-comb laser source outputs a second portion of the first optical-frequency-comb laser light to an outside. The second optical-frequency-comb laser source outputs second optical-frequency-comb laser light emitted from the second laser resonator to the outside.

Abstract: A sensor device may determine a first optical sensor value associated with a first displacement and a second optical sensor value associated with a second displacement, wherein the first displacement is between an emitter associated with the first optical sensor value and a sensing location used to determine the first optical sensor value, wherein the second displacement is between an emitter associated with the second optical sensor value and a sensing location used to determine the second optical sensor value, and wherein the first displacement is different from the second displacement. The sensor device may determine one or more measurements using the first optical sensor value and the second optical sensor value, wherein the one or more measurements relate to a first penetration depth associated with the first optical sensor value, and a second penetration depth associated with the second optical sensor value.
