By leveraging microcavity-integrated photonics and Kerr-induced optical frequency division, an integrated photonic millimetre-wave oscillator with low phase noise is demonstrated, achieving –77 dBc Hz–1 and –121 dBc Hz–1, respectively, at 100-Hz and 10-kHz offset frequencies, corresponding to –98 dBc Hz–1 and –142 dBc Hz–1 when scaled to a 10-GHz carrier.
