摘要
Broadband femtosecond-laser frequency combs are filtered to spectrographically resolvable frequency-mode spacing, and limitations of using cavities for spectral filtering are considered. Data and theory are used to show implications relevant to spectrographic calibration of high-resolution, astronomical spectrometers.
