Abstract: A photonic integrated circuit-based dual frequency comb source, an integrated system for dual comb spectroscopy and corresponding method are disclosed. The dual comb source includes, on a same substrate of the photonic integrated circuit, a first and second semiconductor integrated mode-locked laser, a master laser, and connection arrangement between the master laser and each of the first and second mode-locked laser. The master laser is configured for generating a lasing line for simultaneous optical injection-locking of the first and second mode-locked laser, the first and second mode-locked laser are configured for generating a first and second frequency comb respectively, and the connection arrangement is suitable for coherently transferring lasing light from the master laser to each mode-locked laser. The mode-locked lasers include a gain section and a saturable absorber section to provide mode-locking, and an extended optical cavity formed in the substrate.

Abstract: An optical device includes an elastic support portion which includes a torsion bar extending in a second direction perpendicular to a first direction and a nonlinearity relaxation spring connected between the torsion bar and a movable portion. The nonlinearity relaxation spring is configured so that a deformation amount of the nonlinearity relaxation spring around the second direction is smaller than a deformation amount of the torsion bar around the second direction and a deformation amount of the nonlinearity relaxation spring in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction is larger than a deformation amount of the torsion bar in the third direction while the movable portion moves in the first direction. A first comb finger of a first comb electrode and a second comb finger of a second comb electrode which are adjacent to each other face each other in the second direction.

Abstract: A measurement method for a vertical cavity surface emitting laser diode (VCSEL) and an epitaxial wafer test fixture are provided, especially the Fabry-Perot Etalon of the bottom-emitting VCSEL can be measured. When the Fabry-Perot Etalon of the bottom-emitting VCSEL is measured by a measurement apparatus, a light of the test light source of the measurement apparatus is incident from the substrate surface of the VCSEL epitaxial wafer such that the Fabry-Perot Etalon of the bottom-emitting VCSEL is acquired. Through the VCSEL epitaxial wafer test fixture, the bottom-emitting VCSEL can be directly measured by the existing measurement apparatus such that there is no need to change the optical design of the measurement apparatus, and it can prevent the VCSEL epitaxial wafer from being scratched or contaminated.

Abstract: Input light comprising an optical signal associated with a spectrum of at least a portion of the input light is received into an interferometer. Data comprising an image is provided using a detector array comprising detection elements. Output light is received from the interferometer into a set of one or more optical elements, which provide an optical interference pattern associated with an intensity of at least a portion of the output light that is distributed over a set of detection elements. Detection of the optical signal is stabilized based at least in part on the data using a control system comprising: a light-control module that controls a first feedback loop that stabilizes the portion of the output light; and/or a temperature-control module that controls a second feedback loop that stabilizes a temperature sensed by at least one temperature sensor within a thermal environment associated with the interferometer.

Abstract: Novel monolithic reflective spatial heterodyne spectrometers (SHS) interferometer systems are presented. Monolithic systems in accordance with the invention have a single supporting structure wherein input optics, output optics, a flat mirror, a roof mirror, and a symmetric grating are affixed. Embodiments of the invention contain only fixed parts, and the optics do not move in relation to the supporting structure. Embodiments of the present invention enables smaller, lighter, and more robust reflective SHS systems as compared to conventional interferometry. Additionally, embodiments of the present invention require less time and skill for construction and maintenance, and is a better economic option. Additional embodiments can include multiple interferometer systems in a single supporting structure.
