Generation, Characterization, and
Applications of High Repetition Rate
Optical Frequency Combs, A. M. Weiner,
Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN, USA
High repetition rate frequency combs and pulse
trains are generated from continuous-wave lasers
either by strong electro-optic modulation or by
nonlinear wave mixing in microresonators.
Applications to optical and RF arbitrary waveform
generation and signal processing are discussed.

We present a method to independently measure
the spectral phase of an optical frequency comb
by heterodyning it with a second comb of arbitrarily
detuned repetition rate and appropriately
processing the resulting electrical frequency
comb.
