We propose a novel system of a nano-waveguide that can be used to generate the continuous optical spectrum, i.e. white light. A system consists of two micro-ring resonators and a nano-ring resonator that can be integrated into a single system. The large bandwidth signal is generated using a soliton pulse propagating within a Kerr-type nonlinear medium, whereas the continuous bandwidth or wavelength of light signal can be performed. Results obtained have shown the potential of using such a system for white light source generation and amplification, which is discussed. The amplified pulse can be stored within a nano-waveguide, which is allowed to form the continuous spectrum after amplification. Alternatively, the low-level solar radiation can be amplified, and the bandwidth signals can also be enlarged.     

A novel multi-optical/quantum memory and encoding system using multi-photon generation

We propose a novel system of an optical/quantum memory generation, which can be used for multi-optical/quantum memory applications. The large bandwidth of a single pulse is generated using a soliton pulse in a Kerr-type nonlinear medium, i.e. a nonlinear waveguide. The generation of the localized temporal and spatial soliton pulses within the nano-waveguide is achieved. The free spectrum range enhancement of the generated multi-soliton signals can be formed and achieved using the nano-waveguide incorporating the Mach Zhender Interferometer (MZI). The different light path of the soliton pulses is introduced by the delayed lines of the interferometer. This improves the wavelength free spectrum range, where the different entangled photon pairs can also obtained. Furthermore, the generated photons can be filtered and stored within a system, where the storage of single or multi-photons using the proposed system can be achieved, which in turn can be used for multi-optical/quantum memory applications.     

A novel system for optically localized soliton pulse in a nano-waveguide

We propose a novel optical system that can be used to trap (store) light coherently. The system consists of two micro and a nano-ring resonators that can be integrated into a single system, which can be employed to generate the large bandwidth by a soliton pulse within a Kerr type nonlinear medium. The balance between dispersion and nonlinear lengths of the soliton pulse exhibits the soliton behavior known as self-phase modulation, which introduces the optical output (i.e. gain) constant, which means that light pulse can be trapped, i.e. localized coherently within the nano-waveguide. The time independent soliton pulse is adiabatically localized within the nano-ring device. Results obtained have shown that the trapping of the localized temporal and spatial soliton pulses is achieved.

A soliton input is chopped by the nonlinear effects known as chaos into smaller pulses. The required pulse is filtered and amplified, which can be controlled and localized within the nano-waveguide. The localized bright and dark solitons are trapped within a nano-waveguide by controlling the nano-waveguide input power, which means that the photons trapping is controlled by light.

The control light concept is applied using a nano-waveguide incorporating an MZI, whereas the incoherent light is filtered being coherence, which is amplified and stored within the system. The white light can be re-generated using the stored coherent light pulse. Furthermore, the combination of signals is formed by the array waveguide, which is allowed to generate the huge amount of solar energy output.

The nonlinear Kerr effect induces the spreading frequency bands within the micro-ring device, where the chaotic filtering characteristics can be employed using the appropriate micro-ring parameters. Results obtained have shown that the wide spreading of frequency bands can be generated and selected to form the optical wireless communication links. In this work, the selected down-link and up-link frequency bands are 500 MHz and 2 GHz, respectively. The proposed system can be implemented within the mobile telephone hand set, where the two different frequency carriers within the same frequency bands can be selected to form the up-down-link converters, which means that the frequency converter can be performed within a single system.

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.

Ultra-short pulse generation for soliton transmission using electroabsorption modulators

A simple and stable technique of optical short pulse generation for soliton transmission based on external modulation is reviewe.By using nonlinearity of absorption characteristics of an electroabsorption modulator, ultra-short optical pulse trains having a shape close to sech² shape can be generated just with sinusoidal modulation, without ultra-short driving pulses and ultra-broad bandwidth of the modulator. The pulse width and the repetition rate can be varied by changing the electrical driving conditions. Quasi-transform-limited optical pulseswith time-bandwidth product of 0.32 were successfully generated by the sinusoidally driven InGaAsP electroabsorption modulator with up to 20 GHz repetition rate. An application of a λ/4-shifted DFB laser-electroabsorption modulator integrated light source to a single-chip soliton source is also described. The high quality of the modulator-generator pulses has been proven by long-distance soliton transmission over 6400 km at 2.5 Gb/s using a recirculating fiber loop.
