Simultaneous clock recovery and demultiplexing of a 320 Gb/s OTDM system using an optoelectronic oscillator based on cascaded MZM and PolM

An improved optoelectronic oscillator scheme for an optical time division multiplexing(OTDM) system based on cascaded Mach-Zehnder modulator(MZM) and polarization modulator(PolM) is experimentally investigated.The system can simultaneously realize clock recovery and demultiplexing.With the MZM working at peak point to generate return-to-zero-33 optical pulses and the PolM working as an equivalent intensity modulator,a high-quality clock signal with 35-fs timing jitter is extracted from the 160-GBaud OTDM-differential quaternary phase-shift keying signal.Narrow short optical switch gates(4 ps) are also generated to demultiplex 160-GBaud signals to 40-GBaud signals.Error-free performance is achieved with 2.4-dB power penalty in the worst case.     

Half baudrate electrical clock based demultiplexing scheme for OTDM-DQPSK signal using SOA and optical filter

A demultiplexing scheme based on semiconductor optical amplifier(SOA)and optical filter for optical time division multiplexing differential quadrature phase shift keying(OTDM-DQPSK)system is proposed and investigated experimentally.With only a common half baudrate electrical clock modulated 33%duty cycle return-to-zero(RZ-33)optical clock signal as pump,this scheme is cost-effective,energy-efficient,and integration-potential.A proof-of-concept experiment is carried out for the demultiplexing of a 2×40-GBd OTDM-DQPSK signal.Error-free performance is demonstrated,and the average power penalty for both channels is about 3 dB.

Clock recovery from NRZ data at 10 Gb/s using SOA loop mirror and mode-locked fiber ring laser based on SOA

All-optical clock recovery from non-return-to-zero (NRZ) data using an semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) loop mirror and a mode-locked SOA fiber laser is firstly schematically explained and experimentally demonstrated at 10 Gb/s. Furthermore, the pulse quality of the recovered clock is effectively improved by using a continuous-wave (CW) assist light in the gain region of SOA, through which the amplitude modulation is reduced from 57.2% to 8.47%. This scheme is a promising method for clock recovery from NRZ data in the future all-optical communication networks.

It was found that the dynamic distribution of the power in two sections play key role in the self-pulsation running.

F-P半导体激光器实现多波长注入锁定

F-P半导体激光器中对于TE模比TM模有更大的束缚系数,并且在其反射面上有更高的反射率.当TE模和TM模同时注入F-P半导体激光器的谐振腔时,TE模方向的信号得到增长,TM模方向的信号受到抑制.F-P半导体激光器的这种特性使得它类似于一个偏振器,但是其优越之处在于经过F-P半导体激光器注入锁定之后的光信号没有功率损耗.采用F-P半导体激光器的注入锁定原理,使入射光信号没有功率损耗地由偏振光转换为部分偏振光,降低了通信系统中传输信号的偏振敏感性,使传输信号的质量得到提高,实现了F-P半导体激光器三波长和四波长注入锁定.
