Enhanced optical frequency comb generation by pulsed gain-switching of optically injected semiconductor lasers

We report on the experimental generation of broad and flat optical frequency combs (OFC) in a 1550 nm laser diode using gain switching with pulsed electrical excitation together with optical injection. The combination of both techniques allows the generation of high-quality OFCs at a repetition freq...
