Abstract
A self-referencing nonlinear frequency converting photonic waveguide includes: a supercontinuum input optical taper; a supercontinuum nonlinear optical member that produces supercontinuum light spanning an optical octave with respect to input light; and a supercontinuum output optical taper; a second harmonic input optical taper; a second harmonic nonlinear optical member that receives the supercontinuum light and produces second harmonic light from the supercontinuum light, the second harmonic light including a second harmonic of the supercontinuum light; and a second harmonic output optical taper that receives the second harmonic light, the supercontinuum light, and the input light and co-propagates the second harmonic light, the supercontinuum light, and the input light from the second harmonic generator section as output light.
