Abstract
We demonstrated low threshold optical photonic hyper-parametric oscillator in a high-Q (10/sup 10/) CaF/sub 2/ whispering gallery mode resonator which generates stable 8.5 GHz signal. The oscillations result from the resonantly enhanced four wave mixing occurring due to Kerr nonlinearity of the material.
