Static properties, relatively intensity noise and intensity modulation response in quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) studied theoretically in this paper. The present rate equations model consists of three equations for the electrons density in the conduction band and one equation for photons density in cavity length. Two equations were derived to calculate the noise and modulation response. Calcula...

The short-term sensitivity of a several-kilometers long fiber-optic gyroscope (FOG) is limited mainly by thermal phase noise (TPN) and relative intensity (RIN). Increasing the modulation frequency decreases TPN but not RIN since it behaves as white noise. Here, we propose experimentally demonstrate that angular random walk (ARW) can be effectively decreased suppressing at its third-order harmon...

We had recently measured a chromatic dispersion of optical fiber and a time delay of chirped fiber grating based on a bidirectional modulation of an optical intensity modulator. In this paper, we analyze characteristics of the chromatic dispersion measurement method using a bidirectional modulation of an optical intensity modulator, and give a detailed explanation about the selection of measure...

SUMMARY Amplification characteristics of the signal and the noise in the semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), without facet mirrors for the intensity modulated light, are theoretically analyzed and experimentally confirmed. We have found that the amplification factor of the temporarily varying intensity component is smaller than that of the continuous wave (CW) component, but increases up to ...
