级联声光器件与回音壁模式微腔实现非对称传输

本文提出利用级联声光效应器和耦合回音壁模式微球腔的方案来实现非对称传输效果,并进行理论和实验验证.实验中利用加热拉锥的方式制备了两段式光纤,可同时实现声光效应的激发和回音壁模式的耦合.利用光纤中声光效应将纤芯基模中的矢量模式转换到包层高阶模式,由于基模中不同矢量模式转换包层模式的矢量模式也不同,从而产生类似双折射效果,使输出的包层模式产生偏振变化.而后通过耦合回音壁模式微腔将包层模式转换回纤芯基模.由于回音壁模式的偏振选择效果,使得相反方向入射光能量具有不同的透射特性,其传输隔离度可达17 d B.此外,对两个方向传输的透射率随偏振角度变化进行测试,测得声光效应带来的偏振变化约为80°.本文的非对称传输方案继承了声光器件响应迅速、调谐性良好的优势,同时具有全光纤结构和无工作阈值的特点,在光开关、光隔离器等场景具有重要的应用潜力.

Amplifying Characteristics of Er3+/Yb3+ Co-Doped Parallel-Cascaded Double Microring Resonators

Abstract

In terms of the coupled mode theory, formulas of the transfer function and the output power gain are presented for an Er³⁺/Yb³⁺ co-doped parallel-cascaded double microring resonator. Around the pump wavelength of 0.98 μm and the central signal wavelength of 1.55 μm, analysis is performed for the dependence of the output power gain on the pump power, signal power, dopant concentration, amplitude coupling ratio, and ring spacing. The results show that the output power gain of this device is much larger than that of the Er³⁺/Yb³⁺ co-doped waveguide amplifier with identical waveguide lengths. In the case of the amplitude coupling ratio κ = 0.064, ring spacing L₂ = 10π R, pump power P_p0 = 8 mW, signal power P_s0 = 37.2 μW, Er³⁺ ion concentration N_Er = 1 × 26 m^?3, and Yb³⁺ ion concentration N_Yb = 3 × 27 m^?3, the device can produce higher signal power gain from 11.9 dB even up to 70 dB.     

Single-photon all-optical switching using coupled microring resonators

We study the nonlinear phase response of a microring resonator coupled to a bus waveguide and the use of this nonlinear phase shift to store information in the microring resonator and enhance the switching characteristics of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI). By introducing coupling between adjacent microring resonators, the switching characteristics of the MZI can be exponentially enhanced as a function of the number of microring resonators, when compared to the linear enhancement for uncoupled resonators. With only a few moderate-finesse microring resonators, the switching power can be reduced to attowatt level, allowing for photonic switching devices that operate at single-photon level in ordinary optical waveguides.
