Pumping a nonlinear optical cavity with continuous wave coherent light can result in generation of a stable train of short optical pulses. Pumping the cavity with a non-degenerate resonant coherent dichromatic pump usually does not produce a stable mode-locked regime due to competition of the oscillations at the pump frequencies. We show that generation of stable optical pulses is feasible in a dichromatically pumped cavity characterized with group velocity dispersion optimized in a way that the group velocity value becomes identical for the generated pulses and the beat note of the pump harmonics. The power threshold of the process drops nearly four times in this case and the produced pulses become sub-harmonically locked to the dichromatic pump harmonics. The process is useful for generation of broadband optical frequency combs and optical time crystals. |
