A novel temporal dark-bright solitons conversion system via an add/drop filter for signal security use

We propose a new design of a security scheme by using the nonlinear behaviors of temporal dark and bright solitons within a micro-ring resonator system for signal security application. When a dark soliton pulse is input into the proposed system, the chaotic signal is generated, where the required bright soliton pulse can be retrieved and detected by the add/drop filtering device. The chaotic wave form can be cancelled by using an add/drop device, which can be connected and used in the communication link. By using the appropriate ring parameters, simulation results obtained have shown that the soliton conversion can be performed. The ring radii used are within the ranges from 5 to 10 μms and A_eff=0.10-0.50 μm². In application, the chaotic signal is generated and formed by the dark soliton within a nonlinear micro-ring device. This can be seen by using the add/drop device, where the bright soliton is formed and detected, which is available to use in communication link. The different temporal soliton response time is seen, the response times of 169 and 84 ns are noted for temporal dark and bright solitons, respectively, which can also be used to form the security key.     

An investigation of quantum-chaotic signals generation using a fiber ring resonator and an add/drop multiplexer

We successfully generate the double security using a fiber ring resonator incorporating an add/drop device, whereas the quantum-chaotic encoding of light in a single fiber ring resonator is constructed. In the experiment, the nonlinear Kerr effects in the fiber ring resonator induced the chaotic wave form within the fiber ring resonator, which could be used to scramble or encode into the original signals. The laser input power used was 15 mW, with a fiber ring radius of 50 cm. We found that the double security can be formed, where the randomly polarized photons could be controlled by using the polarization controller and observed.     

Crosstalk and bandwidth of lossy microring add/drop multiplexers

Performance characteristics and the design for optimum crosstalk suppression and extended bandwidth are described for lossy microring add/drop multiplexers. Restrictions constraining the single-ring architecture are contrasted with the increased flexibility of the series-coupled double-ring design. Expressions to compute the bandwidth of the lossy filter maintaining a minimum crosstalk are provided.     

A simultaneous generation of QKD and QDC via optical memory array for distributed network security

We propose a novel system of a simultaneous generation of continuous variable quantum key distribution (QKD) and quantum dense coding (QDC) via an optical memory array. The optical memory system is formed by using an array waveguide incorporating a nano-ring resonator, whereas the different spatial light modes can be generated and stored within an optical memory unit. The polarized photon is formed and stored within a storing device, i.e. a ring resonator, whereas the different time slot entangled photons can be generated, transmitted and detected by the different subscriber in the distributed networks. By using the optical memory concept, the continuous variable quantum key distribution is provided. Furthermore, the use of quantum dense coding via time division multiplexing paths, i.e. different time slot, is also plausible. The advantage of the proposed system is that the quantum key distribution can provide the network top security with high capacity and safety, which is the large demand of usage in the public networks.
