    Area of Science:

    • Photonics and Laser Technology
    • Optical Engineering

    Background:

    • Laser frequency sweeping is crucial for various applications, but traditional methods face limitations in tuning range and speed.
    • Achieving broadband and rapid frequency sweeps with high precision remains a significant challenge in laser technology.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To experimentally demonstrate a novel precision and broadband laser frequency sweeping technique.
    • To enhance the tuning range and rate of a slave diode laser through high-order sideband injection-locking.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing synchronous current compensation for dynamic injection-locking of a slave diode laser.
    • Employing a narrow-linewidth master laser modulated by an electro-optic modulator (EOM) driven by a frequency synthesizer.
    • Leveraging high-order modulation-sidebands (specifically 5th order) to multiply the sweep range and tuning rate.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved a multiplied tuning range of 15 GHz and a tuning rate of 2.5 THz/s, a fivefold increase.
    • Maintained the slave laser's 3 dB-linewidth at 2.5 kHz, matching the master laser.
    • Demonstrated a fast settling time response of 2.5 µs for a 10 MHz frequency switching.

    Conclusions:

    • The demonstrated high-order sideband injection-locking technique offers a viable method for precision broadband laser frequency sweeping.
    • The technique significantly enhances laser tuning capabilities, opening possibilities for advanced optical systems.
    • Further optimization with higher-order sidebands and parameters is expected to yield even greater sweep ranges and rates.
