Observation of large 10-Gb/s SBS slow light delay with low distortion using an optimized gain profile.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An optimum SBS gain profile is designed to achieve better slow-light performance. It consists of a nearly flat-top profile with sharp edges. Tunable delays up to 3 pulse widths for 100-ps-long input pulses, corresponding to 10 Gb/s data rates, are found while keeping an output-input pulse-width ratio below 1.8. Bit-error-rate (BER) measurements performed for a non-return-to-zero modulation format demonstrates 28 ps of delay under error-free operation.

SBS Based Slow-Light Performance Comparison of 10-Gb/s NRZ, PSBT and DPSK Signals
We compare system performances of 10-Gb/s NRZ, PSBT and DPSK signals transmitted in SBS based slow-light delay line. The maximum delay-time of 81ps with error-free operation has been obtained by directly demodulating the DPSK signal through SBS effect. Introduction In recent years, slow-light has attracted extensive interest owing to its potential applications from quantum computing to optical ...
متن کاملOptimal pump profile designs for broadband SBS slow-light systems.
We describe a methodology for designing the optimal gain profiles for gain-based, tunable, broadband, slow-light pulse delay devices based on stimulated Brillouin scattering. Optimal gain profiles are obtained under system constraints such as distortion, total pump power, and maximum gain. The delay performance of three candidate systems: Gaussian noise pump broadened (GNPB), optimal gain-only,...
متن کاملSlow light on Gbit/s differential-phase-shift-keying signals.
We demonstrate, via simulation and experiment, slowing down of a phase-modulated optical signal. A 10.7-Gb/s NRZ-DPSK signal can be delayed by as much as 42 ps while still achieving error free via broadband SBS-based slow light. We further analyze the impact of slow-light-induced data-pattern dependence on both constructive and destructive demodulated ports. By detuning the SBS gain profile, we...
متن کاملStimulated Brillouin Scattering Characterization and Slow Light Generation Technique in Modern Optical Fibres
Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is a recent technique developed to generate slow light in optical fibres. It is the simplest and most applicable method of slow light production. In this paper a high power laser pump was used to provide the Brillouin gain of a low power signal of -10 dBm. Three single mode fibres namely, standard fibre (STD), large area fibre (LA) and reduced slope fibre (...
