However, the optical frequency span and the coherence of the modes is still a limiting factor when comparing to combs based on other laser technologies. Among LDs, Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) under Gain Switching (GS) regime [1] produce record combs in terms of energy efficiency and mode coherence. GS is a well-known nonlinear technique to directly generate OFCGs from LDs.1eng© 2015 IEEEVertical-cavity surface-emitting lasersVCSELOptical frequency comb generatorElectro-optical combconference outputElectrónicaopen access112015 European Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics/European Quantum Electronics Conference (CLEO/EUROPE-EQEC 2015), Munich, Germany, 21-25 June 2015 [Proceedings]CC/0000024675
