Mi249120's Event Publisher!Title: Frequency-Comb-Based Optical Timing Networks Abstract: The optical frequency comb has enabled a wide range of frequency, time and distance metrology applications due to its precise, rigid, and referenced optical output. However, the very rigidity which makes the frequency comb an excellent time-frequency ruler places limits on its applicability for comb-based sensing applications with many operating far from quantum-limited sensitivity. For instance, …
