论文摘要
我们提出了一个集成的半导体 - 二元混合双频激光,在微波炉和Terahertz(THZ)生成的1.5 $ $ M波长范围内运行。在11 GHz附近产生微波搏动频率,我们观察到记录的纳罗内在线宽低至约2 kHz。这是通过基于磷酸二二极管放大器(INP)的混合整合而实现的,其长,低损坏的氮化硅(Si $ _3 $ n $ _4 $)的反馈电路可以扩展Cavity Photon LifeTime,从而延长了Cavity Phottrip的圆形圆形长度,约为30 cm的切碎。通过引入一个外部控制参数来平衡SI $ _3 $ _3 $ n $ _4 $芯片上的两个可调频率选择性的vernier镜子,以平衡两个可调的,频率选择性的vernier镜子,从而启用了两个频率的同时激光。每个频率都可以用大约80 nm的波长调节,可能允许在微波范围内生成广泛的频率至THZ范围。
We present an integrated semiconductor-dielectric hybrid dual-frequency laser operating in the 1.5 $μ$m wavelength range for microwave and terahertz (THz) generation. Generating a microwave beat frequency near 11 GHz, we observe a record-narrow intrinsic linewidth as low as about 2 kHz. This is realized by hybrid integration of a single diode amplifier based on indium phosphide (InP) with a long, low-loss silicon nitride (Si$_3$N$_4$) feedback circuit to extend the cavity photon lifetime, resulting in a cavity optical roundtrip length of about 30 cm on a chip. Simultaneous lasing at two frequencies is enabled by introducing an external control parameter for balancing the feedback from two tunable, frequency-selective Vernier mirrors on the Si$_3$N$_4$ chip. Each frequency can be tuned with a wavelength coverage of about 80 nm, potentially allowing for the generation of a broad range of frequencies in the microwave range up to the THz range.
