Annular symmetry nonlinear frequency converters.
We present a new type of two-dimensional nonlinear structure for quasi-phase matching. This structure has continuous rotational symmetry, and in contrary to the commonly used periodic structures, is not lattice shaped and has no translation symmetry. It is shown that this annular symmetry structure possesses interesting phase matching attributes that are significantly different than those of pe...
متن کاملMonolithically Integrated Wavelength-Routing Switch Using Tunable Wavelength Converters with Double-Ring-Resonator Tunable Lasers
We present an 8 × 8 wavelength-routing switch (WRS) that monolithically integrates tunable wavelength converters (TWCs) and an 8 × 8 arrayed-waveguide grating. The TWC consists of a double-ringresonator tunable laser (DRR TL) allowing rapid and stable switching and a semiconductor-optical-amplifier-based optical gate. Two different types of dry-etched mirrors form the laser cavity of the DRR TL...
متن کاملTunable optical correlator using an optical frequency comb and a nonlinear multiplexer.
We experimentally demonstrate a tunable optical correlator to search for multiple patterns among QPSK symbols. We utilize an optical frequency comb to generate the coherent signals and multiplex them coherently in a single PPLN waveguide. Multiple patterns with different lengths are successfully searched within QPSK symbols in a 40-Gb/s signal.
متن کاملFrequency modulated lasers for interferometric optical gyroscopes.
We study the use of frequency modulated lasers in interferometric optical gyroscopes and show that by exploiting various frequency modulation signals, the laser coherence can be controlled. We show that both angle random walk and bias stability of an interferometric optical gyroscope based on laser sources can be improved with this technique.
متن کاملBroadband semiconductor optical amplifiers and tunable semiconductor lasers
Nonidentical multiple quantum wells (MQWs) had been widely used for broadening the emission or gain bandwidth of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). However, the carrier distribution among the MQWs is not uniform, leading to nonuniform gain contributed from different QWs. Thus using nonidentical MQWs for broadband purpose is not intuitively straightforward. Several factors need to be caref...
