Fig. 1. (Color online) Frequency comb and its applications in spectroscopy and nonlinear dynamics of materials. f_CEO and f_rep denote the carrier envelope offset frequency and repetition frequency of a frequency comb, respectively. f_b1and f_b2are the two repetition frequencies of two combs and the difference between the two is Δf (= f_b2 – f_b1) which is the line spacing of the down-converted dual-comb spectrum.
