Continuous-wave phase-matched molecular optical modulator
In optical modulation, the highest available modulation rate is basically limited to the GHz frequency range at best. This is because optical modulation is often performed using electro-optic or acousto-optic effects that require application of an external signal to solid-state nonlinear optical materials. Here we describe optical modulation of continuous-wave radiation at frequencies exceeding...
متن کامل17 THz Continuous - Wave Optical Modulator
We use coherently rotating hydrogen molecules and demonstrate a continuous-wave (CW) optical modulator at a frequency of 17.6 THz that can modulate any laser within the optical region of the spectrum. The molecules are prepared in a coherent state by using two intense laser beams spaced by the Raman transition frequency inside a high finesse cavity. PACS numbers: 42.65.Dr, 42.65.Re, 42.50.Gy
متن کاملContinuous wave monolithic quasi-phase-matched optical parametric oscillator in periodically poled lithium niobate.
We demonstrate a monolithic and quasi-phasematched singly resonant cw optical parametric oscillator in periodically poled lithium niobate. The threshold is 1.0 W and the OPO delivers up to 0.98 W signal power tunable between 1750 and 1950 nm (2710 and 2340 nm idler, respectively). We identify cascaded parasitic oscillation effects and analyze their behavior theoretically, showing good agreement...
متن کاملPhase-matched guided-wave optical bistability in x s2d optical resonators
Cascaded second-order nonlinear effects attract great interest because of their potential use in devices that require nonlinear (NL) phase shifts. – 9 It is only recently that the case of x s2d distributed couplers in the cascading regime has been considered. The nonlinear effect studied in Ref. 10 is second-harmonic generation, for which only the fundamental frequency field (at v) is incident ...
متن کاملContinuous-wave Optical Parametric Oscillators
Since the publication of an earlier review on optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) in 2000,1 there has been remarkable progress in the technological development and applications of OPO devices. Once considered an impractical approach for the generation of coherent radiation, OPOs have now been finally transformed into truly viable, state-of-the-art light sources capable of accessing difficult ...
