Optimum optical frequency comb generation via externally injection of a gain switched VCSEL

Abstract

A gain-switched VCSEL is subjected to external optical injection to enable optimized comb generation. The generated comb at 6.25GHz portrays a carrier-to-noise-ratio of 55dB, optical linewidth of 15kHz and a RIN of ~130dB/Hz.
