We describe the cavity-enhancement of frequency combs over a wide tuning range of 450-700 nm (> 7900 cm$^{-1}$), covering nearly the entire visible spectrum. Tunable visible frequency combs from a synchronously-pumped optical parametric…

A frequency-stabilized light source emitting at 556 nm is realized by frequency-doubling a 1112-nm laser, which is phase-locked to a fiber-based optical frequency comb. The 1112-nm laser is either an ytterbium (Yb)-doped distributed…

We have generated frequency combs spanning 0.5 to 20 GHz in superconducting half wave resonators at T=3 K. Thin films of niobium-titanium nitride enabled this development due to their low loss, high nonlinearity, low frequency dispersion,…
