摘要
In this Letter, we report phase-matched four-wave mixing separated by over one octave in a dispersion-engineered crystalline microresonator. Experimental and numerical results presented here confirm that primary side bands were generated with a frequency shift up to 140 THz, and that secondary side bands formed a localized comb structure, known as a clustered comb in the vicinity of the primary side bands. A theoretical analysis of the phase-matching condition validated our experimental observations, and our results agree well with !numerical simulations. These results offer the potential to realize a frequency-tunable comb cluster generator operating from I pm to mid-infrared wavelengths with a single and compact device.
