Abstract
We theoretically and experimentally investigate thermal dynamics involved soliton microcomb generation in silicon oxynitride microresonators. Importantly, auxiliary laser heat balance scheme with flexible thermal manipulation is introduced to circumvent thermal instability and the intra-cavity temperature can be tuned from 60 °C to 41.5 °C via the commercial thermoelectric controller.
As a result, various perfect soliton states with ultra-smooth spectral envelopes are observed on a well-designed and fabricated microresonator with homogeneous sidewall and thickness where spatial modes interaction and distortion are eliminated. The pre-reported spectral abrupt jumps due to mode hybridization are completely avoided and solitons tail oscillation vanishes simultaneously.
This reported ideal coherent comb source without residual temporal and spectral noise will facilitate practical applications such as spectroscopy, ranging and astrocomb calibration.
