The transient scattering mechanism of dipole array with reflector

The transient backscattering mechanisms of a dipole array with reflector have been investigated from different aspects： time-domain, frequency-domain, and combined time-frequency domain, using 4 × 8 dipole arrays with reflector as an example. The data of scattering from the arrays under the incidence of Gaussian pulses are obtained by finite differential time domain method. The influences of the array structural parameters, incident wave parameters, and incident angles on the waveforms, spectrum, and time-frequency representations of the backscattered fields of the arrays are analysed and conclusions are drawn. From these characteristics and conclusions, it is possible to deduce the array structure inversely from the backscattered field.     

Noise performance analysis of bi-directionally pumped distributed fiber Raman amplifiers with consideration of fiber nonlinearity and its impact on EDFA output OSNR

Under small-signal assumption, equivalent noise figure normalized by fiber nonlinearities (NENF) of bi-directionally pumped distributed fiber Raman amplifiers (BiDFRA) is derived. Amplified spontaneous Raman scattering noise and double Rayleigh scattering noise are both included. The relation between NENF and Raman gain, forward Raman gain percentage is investigated under different polarization factor and Rayleigh scattering coefficient. It agrees well with numerical simulation results. Based on the analytical expression, the optical signal-to-nose ratio (OSNR) improvement of hybrid pre-BiDFRA/erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) compared with sole EDFA is studied. It is shown that there is an optimum Raman gain and forward Raman gain percentage to maximize the OSNR improvement. Finally, some guidelines on BiDFRA design are proposed.     

Resonance frequencies and threshold gains of distributed feedback lasers with strong modulations

In this paper the calculation of resonance frequencies and threshold gains of distributed feedback (DFB) lasers with strong modulations is discussed. The theory is based on the Floquet solutions of a complex Hill differential equation. The dispersion relation of the above solutions is shown to be of importance for the behaviour of the resonances of the DFB laser.

1.55-μm InGaAs/InGaAlAs MQW vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers with InGaAlAs/InP distributed Bragg reflectors

High-performance InGaAs/InGaAlAs multiple-quantum-well vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) with InGaAlAs/InP distributed Bragg reflectors are proposed for operation at the wavelength of . The lasers have good heat diffusion characteristic, large index contrast in DBRs, and weak temperature sensitivity. They could be fabricated either by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) or by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth. The laser light-current characteristics indicate that a suitable reflectivity of the DBR on the light output side in a laser makes its output power increase greatly and its lasing threshold current reduce significantly, and that a small VCSEL could output the power around its maximum for the output mirror at the reflectivity varying in a broader range than a large VCSEL does.

温度对Al0.5Ga0.5As/AlAs分布布喇格反射器的反射谱影响

采用光学传输矩阵理论对Al0.5Ga0.5As/AlAs材料分布布喇格反射器(DBR)进行理论研究,分析了－10℃到100℃的范围内,温度变化对不同DBR结构的反射光谱影响.结果表明：随着温度的升高,传统20周期DBR的反射光谱向长波长方向移动,速率约0.05 nm/℃,其中由线热膨胀系数带来的影响小于0.001 nm/℃.当传统DBR的周期数增大时,温度对DBR光谱反射率的影响在减小,同时DBR的反射谱峰值波长发生红移.为了降低温度对DBR反射光谱的影响,提出一种新型的复式DBR结构.分析指出：该复式DBR比传统DBR有更大的反射光谱半峰宽,基本能覆盖同温度的AlGaInP LED电致发光光谱,这对提高LED的出光效率有现实意义.
