ERC StG: LASIQFull Name: Photonic Laser Integration for Metrology and Quantum Systems Duration: 1/1/2024-31/12/2028 Objective: - Optical frequency comb generators are specialised lasers capable of generating a spectrum of millions of equally spaced laser lines. Given their near-continuous spectroscopic coverage, these combs can measure near-exact frequencies of light. Since their development, only two decades ago for atomic clocks, they have revolutionised applications in fields from quantum metrology and timekeeping to molecular and astronomic spectrology. Their widespread use has been limited by the lack of cost-effective on-chip optical frequency comb generators. The ERC-funded LASIQ project aims to overcome this barrier by developing the first on-chip titanium-sapphire mode-locked laser capable of generating low-noise optical frequency combs in the 650-1100 nanometre wavelength range.
