Abstract
The simultaneous generation of 60 discrete wavelengths, with a 75 GHz interwavelength spacing, from a modelocked semiconductor diode laser is reported. The individual wavelengths are emitted as mutually synchronised 898 MHz return-to-zero pulse trains. Optical spectra and temporal diagnostics are provided
