Abstract Frequency microcombs, successors to mode-locked laser and fiber combs, enable miniature rulersof light for applications including precision metrology, molecular fingerprinting and exoplanet discoveries. To enable frequency ruling functions, microcombs must be stabilized by locking their carrier-envelop offset frequency. So far, the microcomb stabilization remains compounded by the elaborate optics external to the chip, thus evading its scaling benefit. To address this challenge, here we demonstrate a nanophotonic chip solution based on aluminum nitride thin films, which simultaneously offer optical Kerr nonlinearity for generating octave soliton combs and Pockels nonlinearity for enabling heterodyne detection of the offset frequency. The agile dispersion control of crystalline III-Nitride photonics permits high-fidelity generation of solitons with features including 1.5-octave spectral span, dual dispersive waves and sub-terahertz repetition rates down to 220 gigahertz. These attractive characteristics, aided by on-chip phase-matched aluminum nitride waveguides, allow the full determination of the offset frequency. Our proof-of-principle demonstration represents an important milestone towards fully-integrated self-locked microcombs for portable optical atomic clocks and frequency synthesizers

Frequency synthesizer is a key building block of fully-integrated wireless communications systems. Design of a frequency synthesizer (FS) requires the understanding of not only the circuit-level but also of the transceiver system-level considerations. The FS design challenge involves strong trade-offs, and often conflicting requirements. In this tutorial, the general implementation issues and recent developments of frequency synthesizer design are discussed. Simplified design approach should provide readers with sufficient intuition for fast design and troubleshooting capability. Open problems in this FS field are briefly discussed.
