Abstract
Optical filtering of a stabilized 1 GHz optical frequency comb produces a 20 GHz comb with ~40 nm bandwidth (FWHM) at 960 nm. Using a low finesse Fabry-Perot cavity in a double pass configuration provides a broad cavity coupling bandwidth (delta lambda/lambda {approximately equal} 10%) and large suppression (50 dB) of unwanted modes. Pulse durations shorter than 40 fs with less than 2% residual amplitude modulation are achieved.Citation
