Abstract
A fiber-based approach for linear and continuous chirp control in photonics microwave pulse generation is proposed and demonstrated. The technique is based on spectral pulse shaping combined with nonlinear frequency-to-time mapping (FTM). Particularly, the proposed fiber-optics method provides an unprecedented arbitrary chirp-rate control by combining spectral shaping induced by dispersion unbalance in a fiber interferometer, resulting in a nonlinear-chirp frequency interference pattern, with nonlinear FTM. Full linear chirp reconfigurability, including positive, negative and zero chirp rates, is achieved from a single fiber-optics platform by simply varying the relative delay between the interferometer arms. Moreover, a simple balanced photodetection strategy is implemented to achieve dc-free microwave pulses with significantly improved noise figures. High-quality dc-free gigahertz-frequency microwave sinusoids were successfully generated with central frequencies ranging from 100 MHz to 25 GHz and chirp rates ranging from -160 MHz/ns to +160 MHz/ns.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
