Photonic platforms with chi((2)) nonlinearity provide new possibilities for Kerr frequency comb development. In this study, Kerr soliton generation and dual-band mode-locked combs are demonstrated in a single AlN microring through phasematched quadratic coupling. By engineering the chi((2)) phase-matching wavelength, a balance between high conversion efficiency and high soliton formation rate can be achieved under the given conditions of pump power and microring quality factors.
Photonic platforms with chi((2)) nonlinearity offer new degrees of freedom for Kerr frequency comb development. Here, we demonstrate Kerr soliton generation at 1550nm with phasematched quadratic coupling to the 775nm harmonic band in a single AlN microring and thus the formation of dual-band mode-locked combs. In the strong quadratic coupling regime where the chi((2)) phase-matching window overlaps the pump mode, the pump-to-harmonic-comb conversion efficiency is optimized. However, the strong quadratic coupling also drastically modifies the Kerr comb generation dynamics and decreases the probability of soliton generation. By engineering the chi((2)) phase-matching wavelength, we are able to achieve a balance between high conversion efficiency and high soliton formation rate under the available pump power and microring quality factors. Our numerical simulations confirm the experimental observations. These findings provide guidance on tailoring single-cavity dual-band coherent comb sources. (C) 2022 Optica Publishing Group
