We have experimentally demonstrated a simple and robust method for achieving a narrow-linewidth optical frequency comb (OFC) without an RF signal generator (SG). Our method requires fewer RF components than previous methods. The Allan deviation and integrated RMS phase noise with our method for the in-loop carrier-envelope-offset-frequency signal are 3.3×10−16/τ and 0.35 rad at an integration bandwidth from 1 Hz to 5 MHz, respectively, where τ is the averaging time. Our method could become very useful when RF SG stability becomes a bottleneck to improving OFC stability.
