Laguerre-Gaussian mode division multiplexing in multimode fiber using SLMs in VCSEL arrays
نویسنده
چکیده
Mode division multiplexing (MDM) is a promising technology for increasing the aggregate bandwidth of multimode fiber (MMF) in conjunction with wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) in face of the impending capacity crunch in optical fiber networks. This paper investigates the effect of radial and azimuthal mode spacings in a 25-channel MDM-WDM system in MMF using a spatial light modulator-controlled VCSEL array for excitation of Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) modes. A data rate of 25Gbps is achieved at a central wavelength of 1550.12 nm. The effects of different azimuthal and radial mode spacings of LG modes are analyzed in terms of the channel impulse response, eye diagram and bit-error rate.

Parallel transport of biological cells using individually addressable VCSEL arrays as optical tweezers
We have demonstrated the use of vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) for optical trapping and active manipulation of live biological cells and microspheres. We have experimentally verified that the Laguerre–Gaussian laser mode output from the VCSEL functions just as well as the traditional Gaussian fundamental laser mode for optically trapping biological cells and may be preferable ...
متن کاملNew Design of Optical Filters Based on Single Mode-Multimode-Single Mode Fiber Structure for Optical Fiber Communication Systems
In this paper, a design of optical filters based on single mode-multimode-single mode fiber structure (SMS) is demonstrated. The multimode interference effect can be utilized to design wavelength-selective devices with high extinction ratio. The proposed optical filters are realized by using standard optical fibers. Two optical filters are designed to operate with wave division multiplexing (WD...
متن کاملSelective multimode excitation using volume holographic mode multiplexer.
We propose a mode multiplexer based on volume holograms to realize a simple and efficient mode-division-multiplexed transmission system that supports a large number of modes. Selective multiexcitation of three spatial modes into a conventional multimode fiber is experimentally demonstrated. This device could potentially multiplex 10 or more modes. Future perspectives of the mode multiplexer for...
متن کاملMode-dependent loss and gain: statistics and effect on mode-division multiplexing.
In multimode fiber transmission systems, mode-dependent loss and gain (collectively referred to as MDL) pose fundamental performance limitations. In the regime of strong mode coupling, the statistics of MDL (expressed in decibels or log power gain units) can be described by the eigenvalue distribution of zero-trace Gaussian unitary ensemble in the small-MDL region that is expected to be of inte...
متن کاملBroadband Multi-service In-house Networks Using Mode Group Diversity Multiplexing
Multiple broadband services are carried independently in a highly multimode polymer optical fibre network by selectively launching and detecting several mode groups, while counteracting mode-mixing by adaptive electrical signal processing. With cheap integrated signal processors, mode group diversity multiplexing can offer the same functionality as wavelength multiplexing at lower costs. © 2002...
