Photonic microwave bandpass filter with improved dynamic range.
A technique to improve the dynamic range of a photonic microwave bandpass filter is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The filter is implemented based on phase modulation to intensity modulation conversion using fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) serving as frequency discriminators, with the optical carriers located at the left or right slopes of the FBGs, to generate positive or negative tap c...
متن کاملIn-line microfluidic refractometer based on C-shaped fiber assisted photonic crystal fiber Sagnac interferometer.
We propose and demonstrate a highly sensitive in-line photonic crystal fiber (PCF) microfluidic refractometer. Ultrathin C-shaped fibers are spliced in-between the PCF and standard single-mode fibers. The C-shaped fibers provide openings for liquid to flow in and out of the PCF. Based on a Sagnac interferometer, the refractive index (RI) response of the device is investigated theoretically and ...
متن کاملDynamic range improvement of a microwave photonic link based on bi-directional use of a polarization modulator in a Sagnac loop.
A novel microwave photonic link (MPL) with an improved spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) based on a bidirectional use of a polarization modulator (PolM) in a Sagnac loop is proposed and demonstrated. The PolM in the loop functions, in conjunction with a polarization controller and a polarization beam combiner, as a Mach Zehnder modulator (MZM), which only modulates the incident light wave alon...
متن کاملHigh-resolution, large dynamic range fiber length measurement based on a frequency-shifted asymmetric Sagnac interferometer.
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a single-mode fiber length and dispersion measurement system based on what we believe to be a novel frequency-shifted asymmetric Sagnac interferometer incorporating an acousto-optic modulator (AOM). By sweeping the driving frequency of the AOM, which is asymmetrically placed in the Sagnac loop, the optical length of the fiber can be determined by measur...
متن کاملSingle-photon Sagnac interferometer
We present the first experimental demonstration of the optical Sagnac effect at the single-photon level. Using a high quality guided-wave heralded singlephoton source at 1550 nm and a fibre optics setup, we obtain an interference pattern with net visibilities up to (99.2 ± 0.4%). On the basis of this high visibility and the compactness of the setup, the interest of such a system for fibre optic...
