Design of all-optical temporal differentiator using a Moir fiber grating

We design and demonstrate an all-optical temporal differentiator based on a simple Moir fiber grating operated in reflection. The simulation results prove that a single Moir fiber grating with only one π-phase shifted point can act as the first-order temporal differentiator and that a Moir fiber grating incorporating two symmetrical π-phase shifted points can act as the second-order temporal differentiator. A practical Moir fiber grating is fabricated, thereby proving that such a grating can act as the first-order temporal differentiator. Our results verify the feasibility, flexibility, and accuracy of the proposed method.     

Analysis of dispersion compensation for position-dependence in externally modulated CATV lightwave systems by using chirped fiber grating

Transmission of amplitude-modulated sub-carrier multi-plexed (AM-SCM) analog optical signals in single modefiber is an important and useful technology. Amplitude-modulation vestigial-sideband (AM-VSB) cable televi-sion (CATV) systems have been widely used all over theworld. Apart from 1310-nm optical CATV technology,1550-nm systems have been used for longer transmis-sion distance and more multiplexed channel numbers[1,2].However, it is found that fiber dispersion, combined withthe self-…     

Polarization-dependent characteristics of a racetrack waveguide resonator fabricated by ion exchange in K9 glass

A racetrack waveguide resonator filter was fabricated by ion exchange technology in K9 optical glass. The filter responses of the waveguide resonator were measured with two polarized input lightwaves. The polarization-dependent characteristics of the waveguide resonator were analyzed, and the results of effective indices of nTE = 1.5721 and nTM = 1.5548, coupling ratios of rTE = 0.731 and rTM = 0.761, and losses ofαTE = 4.35 dB/cm andαTM = 6.05 dB/cm were obtained for transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) modes, respectively. The causes of large loss and effective index differences between TE and TM modes were discussed.     

Suppression of mode competition in fiber lasers by using a saturable absorber and a fiber ring

An erbium-doped fiber (EDF) laser was configured with a fiber grating, a fiber ring resonator, and a saturable absorber by using un-pumped EDF as mode selection element. The laser showed single mode operation with a narrow linewidth of 5 kHz. The mode selection mechanisms of the un-pumped EDF and the ring resonator are theoretically and experimentally analyzed.

单长周期光栅迈克耳孙（Michelson）干涉仪是由尾纤端面蒸镀高反膜的单根长周期光纤光栅构成。入射光经长周期光栅后，部分被耦合到包层中传输。经过包层和纤芯传输的光信号经尾纤端面反射后，重新耦合回到长周期光栅中，在光栅区域形成干涉。通过理论计算分析了各种因素对其光谱响应的影响。从实验上得到了干涉光谱的谐振峰波长位移与光纤段温度变化成良好的线性关系，测得其温度系数为31．3pm／℃。表明这种结构可用于高温传感或作为波分复用滤波器。     

Generation of millimeter-wave sub-carrier optical pulse by using cascaded all-pass cavities

A novel scheme is proposed to transform an ultra-short optical pulse to a millimeter-wave frequencymodulated pulse by using the cascaded all-pass cavities （APCs）. The envelope waveform of the generated pulse train is calculated, showing effective improvement by APC cascading. The extinction ratio is analyzed with different input pulses, different cavity reflectivities, and different cascading numbers. It is shown that the cascading does not introduce much effect on the extinction ratio. Two designs by using Gires-Tournois cavity and waveguide ring resonators are proposed to realize the cascaded APC.
