a Schematic of LCU, that combines an AM to form optical pulses, and PM for frequency shifting via optical shearing effect of laser light. b Diagram of the experimental setup used to characterize LCU. c Temporal profile of the generated pulse with pulse width down to 200 ps. d Frequency spectrum of generated and frequency-shifted optical pulses. A shift of ±33 GHz is demonstrated.
