Abstract

By using a stable comb as an input reference to an integrated heterodyne optical-phase-locked-loop consisting of a coherent receiver photonic IC with a widely-tunable laser, high-speed feedback electronics, and an RF synthesizer, accurate optical frequencies across multiple comb lines can be generated. Initial results will be presented.
