Abstract

Provided is an optical source apparatus that may generate two different optical frequency combs. The optical source apparatus includes an optical resonator and a continuous wave laser emitting laser light having a spectrum component corresponding to a resonance frequency of the optical resonator, and the optical resonator is configured to generate a first frequency comb and a second frequency comb having different modes by interacting with the laser light emitted by the continuous wave laser.
