We numerically investigate the effects of pump power and high-order dispersion (HOD) on the generation and evolution of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) micro-ring resonator-based optical frequency combs (OFCs). The observed bandwidth and number of comb modes increase as the pump power enhances, which demonstrates the pump power as low as 0 dBm is required to initiate in the dual-pumped scheme, while the optimized pump power distribution ratio is around 0.5. The HOD can also be introduced to analyze the nonlinear symmetry breaking of the OFC, especially the sign and amplitude of the third-order dispersion determines the variation of the output OFC. Through optimizing the parameters, broadband OFC spanning nearly from 1200 nm to 2100 nm can be realized. This work could give insight for exploring detail characteristics of SOI micro-ring OFCs influenced by pump power and HOD, as well as provide a viable route to delicate control of OFC generation through dispersion adjusting.

AbstractOptical frequency combs have become indispensable in astronomical measurements, biological fingerprinting, optical metrology, and radio frequency photonic signal generation. Recently demonstrated microring resonator-based Kerr frequency combs point the way towards chip scale optical frequency comb generator retaining major properties of the lab scale devices. This technique is promising for integrated miniature radiofrequency and microwave sources, atomic clocks, optical references and femtosecond pulse generators. Here we present Kerr frequency comb development in a historical perspective emphasizing its similarities and differences with other physical phenomena. We elucidate fundamental principles and describe practical implementations of Kerr comb oscillators, highlighting associated solved and unsolved problems.
