Very large telescopes will be needed for the future of space science, space laser-com, and other interstellar or interplanetary applications. However, as telescopes' diameters increase, their weight and cost increase dramatically. An approximation for ground-based observatories is that their cost increases to the power of 2.

- Electrically driven acousto-optic devices have applications in areas like pulse synthesis and heterodyne detection.
- They are typically based on bulk materials and require significant radio frequency power, but this study presents an innovative integrated 3-GHz acousto-optic frequency shifter using thin-film lithium niobate with impressive carrier suppression.
- The platform allows for the creation of a gigahertz-spaced optical frequency comb with over 200 lines and a 0.6-THz optical bandwidth, paving the way for advancements in on-chip optical routing, isolation, and microwave signal processing.
