Laser interferometry serves a fundamental role in science and technology, assisting precision metrology dimensional length measurement. During the past decade, laser frequency combs - coherent optical-microwave ruler over broad spectral range with traceability to time-frequency standards have contributed pivotal roles ever-growing demands measurement precision.

High-Q microresonator is perceived as a promising platform for optical frequency comb generation, via dissipative soliton formation. In order to achieve higher quality factor and obtain the necessary anomalous dispersion, multi-mode waveguides were previously implemented in Si3N4 microresonators. However, coupling between different transverse mode families results periodic disruption of dispersion factor, consequently causes perturbation formation amplitude modulation corresponding spectrum....

Among various DKS states, single DKS, double perfect soliton crystal could be identified simply based on optical spectrum. Especially, state, due to its two-pulse-interference nature, has recently found own application microwave photonics, such as reconfigurable rf filters. However, traditional method...
