Thermal Effects on Kerr Comb Generation in a CaF<sub>2</sub> Whispering-Gallery Mode Microcavity

We numerically investigate the dynamics of Kerr comb generation in a calcium fluoride whispering gallery mode (WGM) microcavity taking thermal effects into account. Soliton pulse generation is investigated in the presence of thermooptic (TO) and thermal expansion (TE) effects and particularly when t...
