  • Abstract
    We investigate auto-bias control of Mach-Zenhder-modulator-based flat comb generator (MZM-FCG). Ultra-flat frequency comb was generated with a single-stage electro-optic Mach-Zehnder modulator exhibiting great long-term stability. In this paper applications of the MZM-FCG are also introduced.
