Coherent control of mid-infrared frequency comb by optical injection of near-infrared light

We demonstrate the use of a low power near-infrared laser illuminating the front facet of a quantum cascade laser (QCL) as an optical actuator for the coherent control of a mid-infrared frequency comb. We show that with appropriate current control of the QCL comb and intensity modulation of the near...
