Abstract

Operating an optical frequency comb assembly includes operating an optical frequency comb source to generate laser light constituting an optical frequency comb and introducing the laser light into a common light path and seeding at least one branch light path by the laser light from the common light path, the branch light path comprising at least one optical element. For the branch light path, a phase difference of a first frequency mode νof the optical frequency comb is determined between laser light coupled out at a reference point within the frequency comb assembly upstream of the at least one optical element and laser light coupled out at a measurement point provided in the branch light path downstream of the at least one optical element. Phase correction for the laser light from the branch light path is based on a deviation of the determined phase difference from a target value.
