Fig. 5. Numerical simulations of platicon microcomb generation with laser self-injection locking.

Fig. 5

a Dynamic evolution of the microresonator intracavity intensity (upper panel), the intracavity comb power and the power in the pumped resonance (middle panel), and the laser detuning of the semiconductor laser with respect to the cold microresonator resonance (bottom panel) as the laser cavity resonance frequency is swept downwards across the microresonator resonance. The dashed line in the bottom panel indicates the lasing frequency trajectory if the optical feedback for self-injection locking is absent. b The platicon spectrum at the time of 2.1 μs. c The temporal profile of the platicon corresponding to the microcomb spectrum in (b).
