Abstract
We have developed an optical single-frequency synthesizer
for telecommunications wavelengths. The synthesizer is
based on a conventional Ti:S frequency comb generator and
generates a single user-specified frequency within the
192-196 THz gain bandwidth of the erbium-doped fiber
amplifier from an atomic time base. The synthesized
frequency can be directly used, e.g., for spectroscopy,
high precision characterization of optical components, or
as a reference in calibration of acetylene-stabilized
lasers.
