利用级联长周期光纤光栅与具有宽带反射功能的啁啾光纤光栅,构成了一种反射型的光纤光栅梳状滤波器.由于光在输出前经过两次干涉滤波作用,所以该梳状滤波器的消光比与透射输出型(即反射前)相比,增加了一倍.而且,通过调节啁啾光纤光栅的反射带宽,可以改变滤波器输出信道的数目.实验中利用弹性梁弯曲的方法,获得了两个可调的光纤光栅梳状滤波器,其信道数可分别在1～5和3～9之间的奇数间调谐(如果改变啁啾光纤光栅的初始中心波长,也可以获得偶数信道间的调谐).

A Novel Dispersionless Comb Gain Equalizer for Fiber-Optical Parametric Amplifier

In this article, we propose a novel superstructure fiber Bragg grating (SFBG)-based comb gain equalizer for fiber-optical parametric amplifiers (FOPAs). The target spectrum of the gain equalizer is obtained by two steps. Initially, we calculate the spectrum according to the inverse of the gain spectrum of the FOPA. Then we apply a channel-by-channel windowing method to shape each channel and adopt a Gaussian hypergeometric function to describe the rising and descending edges of each channel. The SFBG is finally synthesized with layer-peeling inverse scattering technique. Using the designed SFBG, the gain variation of the FOPA is flattened to be within ±0.4 dB for 16 ITU channels and the best channel isolation is as high as 35 dB. It should be pointed out that the proposed method could also be used to design gain equalizers for other optical amplifiers.

Continuous True-Time-Delay System Employing a Novel Tunable Chirped Fiber Grating Delay Line and a Sampled Grating Based Multiwavelength Fiber Laser

A photonics true-time-delay system for phased array antenna beam steering employing a novel tunable chirped fiber grating delay line and a multi-wavelength erbium-doped fiber ring laser source based on a sampled grating filter is proposed. The tunable chirped fiber grating, which act as a continuous time-delay element, is achieved by bending a uniform fiber Bragg grating bonded at a slant onto the lateral surface of a simply supported beam. This technique allows the dynamic control of the chirp rate and spectral width of the grating without center wavelength shift. By adjusting the chirp rate of the fiber grating via bend strain, this kind of tunable chirped fiber grating could achieve very low and adjustable delay times, therefore provides higher angle resolution for scanning microwave beam, even the wavelengths of laser source are fixed and un-tunable. The true-time-delay system using proposed tunable chirped fiber grating delay element and sampled grating based laser source is constructed and demonstrated experimentally.     

Novel flat multichannel filter based on fiber Bragg grating and phase shift

In this letter, a novel optical fiber filter based on fiber Bragg grating and phase shift is proposed for wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) system applications. As the channel-space of the comb filter based on chirped sampled fiber Bragg grating and phase shift was not accurate and the multi-channel was unable to channel the standard frequency, we discussed and calculated the error between theory and practice which has certificated by simulation. Then a compensatory method with phase shift between the samples was proposed, and a 80-channel comb filter with accurate 50-GHz channel-spacing was simulated, which is a good foundation for fabricating comb filters with accurate transmission peak in future.     

Stable wavelength tunable fiber ring laser for true-time delay system

In this paper, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel wavelength tunable fiber ring laser source for a photonic beamforming system to control phased-array antenna. In this fabrication, a Sagnac loop composed of a polarization-maintaining (PM) coupler and a piece of high-birefringence (Hi-Bi) PM fiber is acted as a comb filter to make the frequency spacing equal. The wavelength of the output signal is controlled by the tunable filter outside the Sagnac loop. The intensities of the output signals with different wavelengths increased or decreased at the same frequency spacing are equal. A five-channel true-time delay system consisting of this tunable fiber source and five grating delay lines for discrete beamsteering has been demonstrated. In the experiment, the output signals of the tunable fiber ring with the equal frequency spacing have the same intensity of about 5.9 dBm and the same high signal to noise ratio (SNR) of 40 dB. If the tunable filter in this laser is replaced by a micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) tunable filter, the speed of switching wavelength will increase rapidly.

Wavelength-switchable erbium-doped fiber ring laser combined with a Fabry-Perot laser diode and a sampled grating

We present a wavelength-switchable erbium-doped fiber ring laser consisting of an anti-reflection coated Fabry-Perot laser diode (FP-LD) and a sampled fiber Bragg grating (SFBG). The wavelength switching is obtained easily by the shift of FP mode with respect to the reflection peaks of the SFBG. The proposed laser apparatus not only simultaneously emits two wavelengths but also switches between the two wavelengths by adjusting the modes of FP-LD with a change of the injection current of the FP-LD as little as ∼1 mA. The proposed wavelength-switchable erbium-doped fiber ring laser exhibits high laser performance with side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR) ?50 dB.
