115 kHz tuning repetition rate ultrahigh-speed wavelength-swept semiconductor laser.
We demonstrate an ultrahigh-speed wavelength-swept semiconductor laser using a polygon-based wavelength scanning filter. With a polygon rotational speed of 900 revolutions per second, a continuous wavelength tuning rate of 9200 nm/ms and a tuning repetition rate of 115 kHz were achieved. The wavelength tuning range of the laser was 80 nm centered at 1325 nm, and the average polarized output pow...
متن کاملFast and wide tuning wavelength-swept source based on dispersion-tuned fiber optical parametric oscillator.
We demonstrate a dispersion-tuned fiber optical parametric oscillator (FOPO)-based swept source with a sweep rate of 40 kHz and a wavelength tuning range of 109 nm around 1550 nm. The cumulative speed exceeds 4,000,000 nm/s. The FOPO is pumped by a sinusoidally modulated pump, which is driven by a clock sweeping linearly from 1 to 1.0006 GHz. A spool of dispersion-compensating fiber is added in...
متن کاملHigh-speed wavelength-swept semiconductor laser with a polygon-scanner-based wavelength filter.
Ultrahigh-speed tuning of an extended-cavity semiconductor laser is demonstrated. The laser resonator comprises a unidirectional fiber-optic ring, a semiconductor optical amplifier as the gain medium, and a novel scanning filter based on a polygonal scanner. Variable tuning rates up to 1150 nm/ms (15.7-kHz repetition frequency) are demonstrated over a 70-nm wavelength span centered at 1.32 micr...
متن کاملSemiconductor optical amplifiers at 2.0-μm wavelength on silicon
P A P ER Abstract A semiconductor optical amplifier at 2.0-μm wavelength is reported. This device is heterogeneously integrated by directly bonding an InP-based active region to a silicon substrate. It is therefore compatible with low-cost and highvolume fabrication infrastructures, and can be efficiently coupled to other active and passive devices in a photonic integrated circuit. On-chip gain...
متن کاملUsing Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers
Semiconductor optical amplifiers are used for efficient wavelength conversion up to 4 Gb / s. The rise and fall time as well as extinction ratio are experimentally analyzed. System performance at 4 Gb / s is evaluated showing a penalty of only 1.5 dB for the converted signal for conversion over 17 nm.
