High Order Single-side-band Signal Generation with Optical Carrier Suppression for Optical Frequency Comb

Abstract

We theoretically and numerically study a novel high order SSB-OCS signal generation. By properly adjusting a series of parameters of MZMs, such as modulation indexes and DC biases, a second order SSB-OCS signal with 28dB SMSR is generated, which can be further used in OFC generation.
