Abstract

Provided are a time and frequency control method and system for optical comb. The method includes: controlling an optical comb measuring system to start and to generate an optical comb; obtaining monitoring data, wherein the monitoring data comprises a working temperature, a mode-locked frequency and a light pump power, wherein the mode-locked frequency comprises a repetition frequency and a carrier envelope phase locked at the end of starting the optical comb measuring system; determining whether an offset of the mode-locked frequency exceeds a self-feedback adjustment range of a hardware adjustment circuit; and in response to any of the repetition frequency and the carrier envelope phase exceeds the self-feedback adjustment range, adjusting the working temperature and the light pump power until the mode-locked frequency returns back into the self-feedback adjustment range.
