Investigation of Mode Interaction in Optical Microresonators for Kerr Frequency Comb Generation

Optics 2014-02-25 v1

Abstract

Mode interaction in silicon nitride micro-resonators is investigated. We provide clear experimental evidence of mode interaction between two family modes and mode interaction is demonstrated to be the cause of the comb generation in resonators with normal dispersion.
