Abstract Frequency combs are useful in a wide range of applications, such as optical metrology and high-precision spectroscopy. We experimentally study a controllable frequency comb generated in a tunable superconducting coplanar-waveguide resonator in the microwave regime. A two-tone drive is applied on one of the resonance modes of the resonator and comb generation is observed around the resonance frequency of the resonator. Both central frequency and teeth density of the comb are precisely controllable, and the teeth spacing can be adjusted from Hz to MHz. Moreover, we show that a few hundreds of sidebands can be generated using a sufficiently strong drive power and the weakest drive power needed to generate the comb can be reduced to approach the quantum limit. These experimental results can be qualitatively explained via theoretical analysis.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
