A key challenge in microresonator-based frequency combs has been achieving f-2f self-referencing, which requires a powerful, octave-spanning microcomb. Stable self-referenced combs have numerous applications including ultra-low-noise microwave generation and optical-atomic clocks [1]. Other methods for generating octave-spanning spectra often involve additional processes, including such as comb shaping, amplification, dispersion control, or the integration of a separate platform utilizing χ(2) materials [2]. In our approach, we use a single resonator pumped by picosecond pulses synchronized to the resonator's repetition rate and long directional couplers to achieve high coupling rates for higher-order dispersive waves at high frequencies.
