Spatially Inhomogeneous Gain Modification in Photonic Crystals

The electric and magnetic energy distributions in photonic crystals （PC） are calculated by using the plane wave expansion （PWE） method. Even though the total electric and magnetic energy in each unit cell of photonic crystals are equal to each other, the ratio of electric and magnetic energy densities varies depending on the local position. Based on Fermi＇s golden rule, the optical gain is analysed in the full quantum framework that takes the nonuniform energy density ratio into account. This nonuniform energy density ratio in photonic crystals, defined in an equal form as gain modification factor, leads to spatially inhomogeneous modification of optical gain. Results reported in the paper provide a new perspective for analysing gain characteristics, as well as the lasing properties, in photonic crystals.

光子晶体增强中红外发光研究EI北大核心CSCD

稀土掺杂硫系玻璃是实现中红外发光的重要手段,通过在稀土掺杂硫系玻璃样品上构造光子晶体结构可以大大增强其发光效率。制备了Tm3+离子掺杂硫系玻璃样品并测试了其光谱特性,通过设计光子晶体结构来增强Tm3+离子跃迁产生的3.73 mm处的荧光强度。利用有限时域差分法(FDTD)进行运算,模拟结果表明,通过优化设计的光子晶体结构参数,掺杂样品在3.73 mm处的光子态密度相比于未采用光子晶体结构所产生的光子态密度有极大提高,计算其Purcell放大因子可达到未进行结构设计的50倍以上。光子态密度的极大提高以及Purcell放大因子为增强发光强度提供了理论依据,该研究结果对实现高效率中红外光源器件具有重要的指导意义。     

Low pump power co-fiber remotely pumped EDFA used in DWDM systems with ultra-long fiber span

Extending span distance is an important way to reducethe cost of long-haul dense wavelength division multi-plexing (DWDM) systems. In traditional DWDM sys-tems based on erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs),span distance is about 80—100 km. Quantum limitationin noise figure (NF) of EDFAs (3 dB) prevents furtherextension of span distance with acceptable costs on trans-mission distance. capacity, and performance. Distributedfiber Raman amplifiers (DFRAs) have been proven tohave better…     

Correlated Photon Pair Generation in Silicon Wire Waveguides at 1.5 μm

Correlated photon pairs at 1.5 μm are generated in a silicon wire waveguide （SWW） with a length of only 1.6 mm. Experimental results show that the single-side count rates on both sides increase quadratically with pump light, indicating that photons are generated from the spontaneous four-wave mixing （SFWM） processes. The quantum correlation property of the generated photons is demonstrated by the ratio between coincident and accidental coincident count rates. The highest ratio measured at room temperature is to be about 19, showing that generated photon pairs have strong quantum correlation property and low noise. What is more, the wavelength correlation property of the coincident count is also measured to demonstrate the correlated photon pair generation. The experimental results demonstrate that SWWs have great potential in on-chip integrated low-noise correlated photon pair sources at 1.5 μm.

We report on the realization of optical true-time delay （TTD） by a two-dimensional photonic crystal waveguide （PCWG）. Design and fabrication of the PCWG are investigated. The spectral dependence of the group delay is measured by detecting the phase shifts of a 10 GHz modulating signal, and a maximum delay of 25±2.5 ps is obtained.     

Fibre Optical Parametric Amplification in Defect Bragg Fibres with Zero Dispersion Slow Light Effect

Nonlinearity enhancement by slow light effect and strong light confinement in defect Bragg fibres is demonstrated and anMysed in applications of fibre optical parametric amplifiers. Broadband low group velocity and zero dispersion as well as the strong light confinement by band gap enhances the nonlinear coefficient up to more than one order than the conventional high nonlinear fibres. Moreover, the zero dispersion wavelength of coupled core mode can be designed arbitrarily, under which the phase-matching bandwidth of the nonlinear process can be extended.     

Third-Order Optical Nonlinearity in Novel Porphyrin Dimers

We investigate the third-order optical nonlinearities in four novel porphyrin dimers （dimers A to D） and a monomeric porphyrin H2 CPTPP measured by using the single-beam z-scan technique with a pulsed Q-switched Nd：YAG nanosecond laser at 532nm. All the samples show strong excited state absorption （ESA） and high value of Х^（3） in the ns domain at this wavelength. We perform a comparison between dimer A and its monomer H2 CPTPP in their third-order optical nonlinearity, and discuss the relationships between the values of Х^（3） and the different bridging groups for all the dimers.
