Abstract Integrated electro-optic (EO) frequency combs are essential components for future applications in optical communications, light detection and ranging, computation, sensing spectroscopy. To date, broadband on-chip EO typically generated high-quality-factor micro-resonators, while the more straightforward flexible non-resonant method, usually using single or cascaded phase modulators, often requires high driving power to realize a reasonably strong modulation index.
