Photonic chip-based soliton frequency combs covering the biological imaging window
Abstract
Dissipative Kerr solitons in optical microresonators provide excellent optical frequency comb sources for precision metrology and imaging techniques. Here, Karpov et al. demonstrate a chipscale octave-spanning soliton-based comb, operating at 1 μm wavelength that covers the biological imaging window.
