Parametric Kerr-Induced Synchronization of an Integrated Microcomb via Continuous Wave-Soliton Interaction

Key Points

• Parametric synchronization was achieved in an octave-spanning microcomb, enhancing its stability and performance.
• Four-wave mixing played a crucial role by triply pinning the repetition rate, resulting in robust synchronization.
• The approach bypassed the need for direct comb tooth capture, streamlining the generation of frequency combs.
• Potential applications in telecommunications and precision measurement may be significantly enhanced by this advancement.
