Fig. 4: Experimental summary map of comb satellites and theoretical comparison.

a Satellite maps for different pump wavelengths, including parameter sets for three varied coupled pump powers. Under different pump powers and detunings, exchange between symmetric satellite (s-sat) and dispersive wave (DW) is observed. Theoretical analysis for symmetric satellites (black solid lines) matches well with our measurements. Modeling for dispersive waves (green dashed lines, DW1 and DW2) match with our measurements with uncertainty resulting from the uncertainty of higher-order dispersion and refractive index. An example of the symmetric satellite (s-sat) and dispersive wave (DW) is shown in (b, c) where the resonator is pumped under the same mode but with slightly different detuning. The comb mode numbers of the symmetric satellite and dispersive waves are labeled.
