Calculation of cutoff frequency of arbitrary weak guidance optical waveguides by extended boundary condition method

The extended boundary condition method is applied to both circular and elliptical regions for calculating cutoff frequencies V_c of weakly guiding optical waveguides, which consist of a uniform cladding and a core with arbitrary shape and index profile. The frequency shift formula method is explained by means of the extended boundary condition method on circular regions. Comparing the method with analytic and other rigorous methods, we show that it is indeed a powerful tool. Numerical results confirm that the mode designation and arrangement order in elliptical and rectangular waveguides are, in general, dependent on the aspect ratio.

Quantum‐optical analogies using photonic structures

Engineered photonic waveguides have provided in the past decade an extremely rich laboratory tool to visualize with optical waves the classic analogues of a wide variety of coherent quantum phenomena encountered in atomic, molecular or condensed‐matter physics. As compared to quantum systems, optics offers the rather unique advantage of a direct mapping of the wave function evolution in coordinate space by simple fluorescence imaging or scanning tunneling optical microscopy techniques. In this contribution recent theoretical and experimental advances in the field of quantum‐optical analogies are reviewed. Special attention is devoted to some relevant optical analogies based on the use of curved photonic structures, including: coherent destruction of tunneling in driven bistable potentials; coherent population transfer and adiabatic passage in laser‐driven multilevel atomic systems; quantum decay control and Zeno dynamics; electronic Bloch oscillations and Zener tunneling, Anderson localization and dynamic localization in crystalline potentials.     

Characteristics of Multi-Beam Module Using Waveguides for Laser Scanning Optical Systems

A multi-beam module using optical waveguides has been studied for a laser scanning optical system. Laser diodes with a wavelength of 780 nm are assembled on a silicon substrate. The beams emitted from the laser diodes are directly coupled into waveguides. This multi-beam module is assembled on a metal substrate with a photodiode. The photodiode controls the power of each laser diode on the silicon substrate. The multi-beam module is able to increase the output speed of high-density image printings, and the speed for high-speed color printings. We have developed the four-beam module with beam divergence angles of 11 degrees and spatial beam interval of 24 μm. Additional heat sink and optimizing tip-bonding between the laser diode and solder pad on the silicon substrate is useful to stabilize laser power against rising temperature.     

Strong optical non-linearities for efficient all-optical switching in GaAlAs waveguides

The light intensity transmission of GaAlAs strip waveguides is sensitively dependent on the strength of the electric field inside the waveguide, when the photon energy is close to the band gap (Franz-Keldysh effect). In a waveguide embedded in a pn-junction the transmitted light itself induces the field changes through the photoelectric effect. This photo-induced Franz-Keldysh effect causes a non-linear intensity transmission of the waveguide. Light power levels far below 1 mW are sufficient to give strong non-linearities. Possible application schemes for modulation and all-optical switching in integrated optics and optoelectronics are discussed.     

Cost of power—the user's perspective

Abstract

With the advent of fiber in the loop, transmission of power ceases to be through the traditional communications medium, and the objective of powering voice lines over fiber with the same reliability goals as plain old telephone service (POTS) raises several technological, regulatory, and business issues. In order to power the optical network unit (ONU) and provide backup power for it during commercial power outages, three strategies are identified: 1) providing loop powering from a ?48 volt CO/CEV power plant; 2) providing power and backup power locally, from or near the end of the loop in proximity to the OW; and 3) providing power from the curb or a power node. This paper constructs economic models to determine the worth of a watt at the 5-volt logic level at an ONU for each of the powering strategies. By normalizing all costs to the worth of a watt, comparisons can be made and appropriate architectures can be selected for various applications.     

Electro‐optic Polymer Ring Resonator Modulator on a Flat Silicon‐on‐Insulator

Optical polymers are a promising material of choice in the development of hybrid silicon photonics devices. Particularly, recent progress in electro‐optic (EO) active polymers has shown a strong Pockels effect. A ring resonator modulator is a vital building block for practical applications, such as signal processing, routing, and monitoring. However, the properties of the hybrid silicon and EO polymer ring modulators are still far from their theoretical limits. Here, we demonstrate a unique design of a hybrid ring resonator modulator simply located onto a silicon‐on‐insulator (SOI) substrate. Extra doping and etching of the SOI wafer is not required, even so we measured an in‐device electro‐optic coefficient r₃₃ = 129 pm/V. The ring modulator exhibited a high sensitivity of the electrically tunable resonance, which enabled a 3 dB bandwidth of up to 18 GHz. The proposed technique will enable efficient mass‐production of the micro‐footprint modulators and promote the development of integrated silicon photonics.

Experimental mode coupling analysis in optical waveguides for sensor and component optimization

A computer controlled mode coupling analyser is conceived and described in detail to characterize and to analyse mode coupling in all known kinds of cylindrical, multimode, step index, optical waveguides (CMSIOWs) by experimental measurement. These waveguides can be present in many ways like simple fibres, multimode fibre-optic sensors (MFOS) or other optical components like couplers or modulators. The computer processed results of measurements lead to transfer matrices and modulation transfer matrices. The transfer matrices describe the light distribution in the far field of these waveguides depending on the direction and power of the light that is injected into it. By visualizing the modulation transfer matrices in the form of mesh diagrams, the influence of external physical parameters, like a measured variable, on the mode coupling mechanisms inside CMSIOWs can be shown directly. The computer controlled mode coupling analyser will make the optimization of MFOS more efficient and, moreover, it will ease modelling of CMSIOWs and define their properties. The potential field of applications for the mode coupling analyser will be in engineering and optimization of intrinsic multimode fibre-optic sensors and their components.

Design of Planar Optic Sensors for Hydrocarbon Detection

A realistic design of evanescent field optical sensors, constituted by three different kinds of planar waveguides covered by a sensing polymeric overlay, is performed. More precisely, the slab, the embedded strip and the ridge waveguides are considered. The sensor operation is simulated, in both the cases of lossy guided and leaky mode propagation, via a home made computer code. The optimal waveguide transverse section and length are identified, the advantages and drawbacks are shown. The ridge waveguide sensor exhibits appreciable characteristics: for a concentration C _w = 200 ppm of toluene in water, the absorbance pertaining to a device L = 2.6 cm long and for the guided quasi-TE₀₀ mode is A ≅ 5, while it is A ≅ 0.054 for a device long L ≅ 24.1 μm and the leaky quasi-TE₁₀ mode. The simulation results suggest that a selective excitation of the suitable propagation mode can enhance the sensor performance.
