Abstract
Dual-comb spectroscopy has drawn significant attention as a powerful approach to acquire optical spectra with unprecedentedly high resolution, high accuracy, and short acquisition time. In this study, we propose an all-fiber-type dual-comb spectrometer with compact, stable, and easy-to-use setup. Based on this simple and practical concept, we aim to vastly expand the applicability of the dual-comb spectroscopy. In the developed system, in order to reduce unfavorable phase noise, we constructed the fiber system by using polarization-maintaining fibers and introduced a temperature control system. Consequently, a phase stability of the order of 10 mrad is achieved, which allows us to characterize the properties of materials with a high accuracy. The developed system has great potential for applications in rapid and precise characterization of a wide variety of specimens, such as solid materials, liquid in glass cells, and optical fiber components.
