We investigate the application of integrated micro-combs in RF photonic systems and demonstrate a microwave photonic intensity differentiator based on a Kerr optical comb generated by a compact integrated micro-ring resonator. The on-chip Kerr optical comb is CMOS-compatible and contains a large number of comb lines, which can serve as a high-performance multi-wavelength source for the transversal filter, thus greatly reduce the cost, size, and complexity of the system. The operation principle is theoretically analyzed, and experimental demonstrations of fractional-, first-, second-, and third-order differentiation functions based on the principle are presented.

We demonstrate a high-Q RF transversal filter based on a 49GHz-FSR integrated microcomb source that provides 80 taps across the C-band. By employing an on-chip micro-ring resonator, we generate a broadband Kerr comb with a large number of comb lines and use it as a high-quality multi-wavelength source. A Q factor of 73.7, an out-of-band rejection of 48.9 dB, and a wide tunable range are demonstrated. The experimental results verify the feasibility of our approach as a solution towards implementing highly reconfigurable MPFs with a large tap number and reduced system complexity.Keywords: Radio frequency photonics, nonlinear optics, integrated optics
