contents Fiber Fabry-Perot resonators have proven their ability to generate broad and stable optical frequency combs, and are ideal devices for fiber systems as they are high-Q, compact, and easily integrated with FC/PC connectors. Here, we present an advanced fiber Fabry-Perot resonator designed for multi-frequency comb generation and spatial multiplexing. The resonator is fabricated using a three-core optical fiber and is able to generate two mutually coherent frequency combs while being locked to a driving laser. Multiplexing of the combs is achieved with a fan-in/fan-out system, enabling a fully fiber-based experimental setup. The generated combs, induced by cavity solitons, feature a 1.27 GHz repetition rate and a bandwidth above 40 nm. A slight difference in the group index of each core leads to a 112 kHz repetition rate offset between the combs, enabling dual-comb spectroscopy proof-of-concept measurement of a 0.1 nm absorption band.
