A cost-effective WDM-PON architecture simultaneously supporting wired, wireless and optical VPN services

It is believed that next-generation passive optical networks (PONs) are required to provide flexible and various services to users in a cost-effective way. To address this issue, for the first time, this paper proposes and demonstrates a novel wavelength-division-multiplexed PON (WDM-PON) architecture to simultaneously support three types of services: 1) wireless access traffic, 2) optical virtual passive network (VPN) communications, and 3) conventional wired services. In the optical line terminal (OLT), we use two cascaded Mach-Zehnder modulators (MZMs) on each wavelength channel to generate an optical carrier, and produce the wireless and the downstream traffic using the orthogonal modulation technique. In each optical network unit (ONU), the obtained optical carrier is modulated by a single MZM to provide the VPN and upstream communications. Consequently, the light sources in the ONUs are saved and the system cost is reduced. The feasibility of our proposal is experimentally and numerically verified.     

Erbium doped fiber ring laser for optical wavelength conversion

We experimentally investigate the gain saturation effect of a piece of 8 m long Erbium doped fiber (EDF), we introduce a theoretical model for the EDF ring loop, and our simulation results show very good cross-gain modulation (XGM) and wavelength conversion. We also experimentally investigate the XGM in an EDF ring loop system. Based on the study of the XGM in the EDF ring loop system, a wavelength conversion is designed with the EDF ring loop system. The EDF ring loop systems as a wavelength conversion is experimentally demonstrated by converting a sinusoidal modulated optical signal at wavelength of 1551 nm to an optical signal at wavelength of 1553.3 nm.

通过透射光谱、x射线激发发射光谱（XSL）的测试，研究了Bridgman法生长的几种不同+3价离子掺杂钨酸铅晶体的发光性能，并利用正电子湮没寿命谱（PAT）和x光电子能谱（XPS）的实验手段，对不同钨酸铅晶体的微观缺陷进行研究.实验表明，不同的+3价离子掺杂，对钨酸铅晶体发光性能的改善不同，并使得晶体中正电子俘获中心和低价氧的浓度发生不同变化.其中掺镧晶体的正电子俘获中心和低价氧浓度均上升，而掺钇和掺铋晶体的正电子俘获中心和低价氧浓度均下降，掺锑晶体则出现了正电子俘获中心浓度上升、低价氧浓度下降的情况.提 关键词： 钨酸铅晶体 +3价离子掺杂 正电子湮没寿命谱 x光电子能谱     

QMD模型的改进及其在低能重离子反应中的应用

丰中子核以及重核熔合机制的研究以及中能重离子碰撞中多重碎裂的研究都迫切需要一个统一的、自洽的微观动力学模型.经过对量子分子动力学模型进行根本的改进,发展了一个新的、适用于低能以及中能重离子反应的统一描述的微观动力学模型.改进的量子分子动力学(ImQMD)模型能够将整个熔合反应过程中的动力学效应、同位旋效应以及弹靶质量不对称效应等比较全面地、自洽地考虑进来,从而给熔合反应的研究提供了一个新的途径.ImQMD模型能够很好地再现一系列核的基态性质以及10多个熔合反应的激发函数(包括丰中子核熔合体系以及实验最新测量的132Sn+64Ni熔合体系).此外还运用该模型初步探索了重核熔合过程中复合体系的寿命与体系的入射能量、体系大小以及体系的中子质子比的依赖关系. We have developed a new microscopic dynamical model called improved quantum molecular dynamical model (ImQMD). This model can describe the fusion process at energies near the Coulomb barrier as well as the multifragmentation process at intermediate energies in heavy-ion collision (HIC) uniformly. By using this model, fusion cross sections (including some of neutron-rich nuclei reactions and that of newly measured~(132)Sn+~(64)Ni fusion reaction) of tens reactions can be reproduced remarkably well.

Design of an ultrafast all-optical NOR logic gate based on Mach-Zehnder interferometer using quantum-dot SOA

This paper proposes a design for all-optical NOR logic gate, based on Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) using quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifier (QD-SOA). In this regard, a theoretical model for an ultrafast all-optical signal processor is developed using QD-SOA to achieve high bit rate operation. We have demonstrated the NOR gate operation in two cases of with and without an optical control pulse. Simulations have been carried out at data bit rates 160 Gb/s, 200 Gb/s, and 250 Gb/s for the case that control pulse is not applied, and also at data bit rates 1 Tb/s and 2 Tb/s in presence of control pulse which leads to improvement of gain recovery time and ultrafast NOR logic operation. In addition, quality factors of the output signals in presence and without the control pulse at different bit rates with different bias currents have been investigated for pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) of word length 2⁸–1.     

Optical Single-Sideband Modulators and Their Applications

We review our recent work in the implementation of optical single-sideband (OSSB) modulation and in the application of this modulation format to microwave photonics and optical testing systems. We have developed an enhanced OSSB modulator for wide-band operation, the so-called bidirectional OSSB modulator, and a simplification of this scheme for narrow-band applications. These OSSB modulators are based on the use of a standard single-electrode Mach-Zehnder electro-optic modulator (MZ-EOM) and passive fiber-optic components. In both designs, the OSSB operation is shown to be independent of the MZ-EOM bias. Therefore, the optical modulation depth at the output of the device can be enhanced using minimum transmission biasing to provide suppression of the optical carrier. Finally, we demonstrate the application of OSSB modulators to the improvement of microwave/millimeter-wave subcarrier multiplexing fiber-optic links and to narrow-band fiber radio systems. In addition, we analyzed the feasibility and the limitations of an optical vector network analysis technique based on OSSB modulation that can provide sub-picometer wavelength resolution.

啁啾光脉冲的振幅调制和相位扰动对压缩光脉冲的影响

 通过采用分步傅里叶变换法求解非线性薛定谔方程,模拟了啁啾光脉冲有振幅调制和相位扰动下的自相位调制（SPM）对压缩光脉冲对比度和预脉冲宽度的影响。结果表明：啁啾光脉冲的振幅调制深度和相位扰动深度越大,则压缩后的光脉冲对比度越小;啁啾光脉冲的振幅调制周期和相位扰动周期越小,则压缩光脉冲的预脉冲宽度越大。     

Frequency Domain Fluorescence Lifetime Study of Crude Petroleum Oils

Frequency domain (FD) fluorescence lifetime data was collected for a series of 20 crude petroleum oils using a 405 nm excitation source and over a spectral range of ~426 to ~650 nm. Average fluorescence lifetimes were calculated using three different models: discrete multi-exponential, Gaussian distribution, and Lorentzian distribution. Fitting the data to extract accurate average lifetimes using the various models proved easier and less time consuming for the FD data than with Time Correlated Single Photon Counting (TCSPC) methods however the analysis of confidence intervals to the computed average lifetimes proved cumbersome for both methods. The uncertainty in the average lifetime was generally larger for the discrete lifetime multi-exponential model when compared to the distribution-based models. For the lifetime distributions, the data from the light crude oils with long lifetimes generally fit to a single decay term. Heavier oils with shorter lifetimes required multiple decay terms. The actual value for the average lifetime is more dependant on the specific fitting model employed than the data acquisition method used. Correlations between average fluorescence lifetimes and physical and chemical parameters of the crude oils were made with a view to developing a quantitative model for predicting the gross chemical composition of crude oils. It was found that there was no significant benefit gained by using FD over TCSPC other than more rapid data analysis in the FD case. For the FD data the Gaussian distribution model for fluorescence lifetime gave the best correlations with chemical composition allowing a qualitative correlation to some bulk oil parameters.
