Polarization insensitive wavelength conversion in a dispersion-engineered silicon waveguide
We experimentally demonstrate polarization-insensitive all optical wavelength conversion of a 10-Gb/s DPSK data signal based on four-wave mixing in a silicon waveguide with an angled-pump scheme. Dispersion engineering is applied to the silicon waveguide to obtain similar four-wave mixing conversion performances for both the TE and TM modes. Bit-error rate measurements are performed and error-f...
متن کاملAll-optical Switching Structure Using Nonlinear Photonic Crystal Directional Coupler
In this paper, a new all-optical switching structure is proposed and analyzed. Switching is accomplished by embedded Kerr nonlinear rods in the coupling region of a photonic crystal directional coupler. We show that by modifying the supermodes dispersion curves, the switch length can be reduced 22% with respect to similar structures. Finite-Difference TimeDomain and Plane Wave Expansion methods...
متن کاملDesign of a 6db Directional Coupler Using Defected Ground Structure
This paper presents the design of 6dB directional coupler in C-band. A defected ground structure is used underneath the coupled region in order to relax the requirement for a narrow slot between the coupled lines. The simulated results show that the designed coupler exhibits a coupling of 6±0.1dB across the band 4.0 GHz to 4.5 GHz, when the spacing between the coupled lines is larger than 0.1 m...
متن کاملIntegrated-optical directional coupler biosensor.
We present measurements of biomolecular binding reactions, using a new type of integrated-optical biosensor based on a planar directional coupler structure. The device is fabricated by Ag(+) - Na(+) ion exchange in glass, and definition of the sensing region is achieved by use of transparent fluoropolymer isolation layers formed by thermal evaporation. The suitability of the sensor for applicat...
متن کاملBroadband terahertz fiber directional coupler.
We present the design of a short broadband fiber directional coupler for terahertz (THz) radiation and demonstrate a 3 dB coupler with a bandwidth of 0.6 THz centered at 1.4 THz. The broadband coupling is achieved by mechanically downdoping the cores of a dual-core photonic crystal fiber by microstructuring the cores. This is equivalent to chemical downdoping but is easier to realize experiment...
