An analytic method for designing passband flattened DWDM demultiplexers using spatial phase modulation

An analytic method of spatial phase modulation based on Fourier analysis is introduced for the design of a planar waveguide demultiplexer with a flat-top spectral response. An analytic formula for an etched diffraction grating demultiplexer is derived using the scalar diffraction theory. The spatial phase modulation is realized by slightly adjusting each grating facet's position according to the analytic formula to obtain a spectral response with a flat top and sharp transitions as well as a good dispersion characteristic. The analytic formula is characterized by two parameters: a transverse shift distance and a profile exponent for the phase modulation. A linear relation between the passband width and the transverse shift distance is given, and an optimal figure of merit of the spectral response is obtained by choosing an appropriate profile exponent. A numerical example of a typical SiO/sub 2/ etched diffraction grating demultiplexer is used to demonstrate the advantages of this method.     

Variable delay line for phased-array antenna based on a chirpedfiber grating

We present a theoretical and experimental analysis of the performance of phased-array antennas steered by a single chirped fiber grating. Two approaches consisting of conventional and single-sideband (SSB) modulation techniques of the optical signal are presented in order to compare their performance and suitability for beamforming applications in microwave antennas. By using a 40-cm-long chirped grating, we measure the phase and amplitude response and calculate the corresponding radiation patterns to demonstrate wide-band operation and continuous spatial scanning properties of both configurations. SSB modulation Is presented as a real alternative to the first one offering broader operation band (4-18 GHz) for a given chirped grating and being less demanding on the fiber grating characteristics

采用啁啾光纤光栅补偿带啁啾的超高斯脉冲在光纤中传输的色散

利用啁啾光纤光栅,对带啁啾的超高斯脉冲的色散补偿特性进行了理论分析和数值模拟。数值模拟结果表明,光脉冲在普通单模光纤中传输了一定距离后,由于色散的作用,脉冲发生展宽,超高斯脉冲比高斯脉冲展得更宽。若初始脉冲含有啁啾,展宽后的脉冲还出现小调制。用啁啾光纤光栅进行色散补偿后,高斯型脉冲能够较好的恢复初始脉冲形状,带啁啾的超高斯脉冲的脉宽可恢复到接近初始脉冲的宽度,但脉冲形状发生了畸变,并出现了旁瓣,脉冲峰值功率与超高斯脉冲阶数和啁啾参数有关。

Continuous True-Time-Delay System Employing a Novel Tunable Chirped Fiber Grating Delay Line and a Sampled Grating Based Multiwavelength Fiber Laser

A photonics true-time-delay system for phased array antenna beam steering employing a novel tunable chirped fiber grating delay line and a multi-wavelength erbium-doped fiber ring laser source based on a sampled grating filter is proposed. The tunable chirped fiber grating, which act as a continuous time-delay element, is achieved by bending a uniform fiber Bragg grating bonded at a slant onto the lateral surface of a simply supported beam. This technique allows the dynamic control of the chirp rate and spectral width of the grating without center wavelength shift. By adjusting the chirp rate of the fiber grating via bend strain, this kind of tunable chirped fiber grating could achieve very low and adjustable delay times, therefore provides higher angle resolution for scanning microwave beam, even the wavelengths of laser source are fixed and un-tunable. The true-time-delay system using proposed tunable chirped fiber grating delay element and sampled grating based laser source is constructed and demonstrated experimentally.

Azimuthal mode discrimination in radially chirpedconcentric-circle-grating distributed feedback lasers

We report a theoretical investigation analyzing the threshold modes of a concentric-circle-grating (CCG) distributed feedback laser with a radially chirped first-order Bragg grating. A numerical coupled-mode analysis of a chirped CCG laser shows improved azimuthal mode discrimination for chirped gratings with linear, quadratic, and square-root radial dependence. Negatively chirped gratings, in which the grating period decreases with radius, result in improved threshold discrimination between the circularly symmetric fundamental mode and higher order modes; positively chirped gratings, in which the grating period increases with radius, result in decreased threshold for higher order modes in general. Also, the intensity for the fundamental mode at the grating center can be reduced by an order of magnitude using linearly chirped gratings

Chirped fiber-optic Bragg grating interrogator in a multiplexed Bragg grating sensor configuration

This paper presents a chirped grating interrogator for fiber Bragg grating sensors. The interrogator uses the wavelength dependence of the phase group-delay response of a chirped fiber Bragg grating to determine the Bragg wavelength of the sensor. The sensitivity of the interrogator is determined by the selection of the grating length and the bandwidth. The experimental results demonstrated strain measurements over a range of more than 10 000 /spl mu/m per meter. Multiplexing can be achieved by using an arrayed-waveguide grating that allows the interrogation of more than one grating sensor with a single chirped grating.

Longitudinal mode competition in chirped grating distributedfeedback lasers

Gain competition often inhibits the simultaneous lasing of multiple longitudinal modes in homogeneously broadened laser systems. A stability analysis is developed to demonstrate that the two lowest order degenerate longitudinal modes in an index-coupled distributed feedback (DFB) laser will lase simultaneously when the index grating is chirped asymmetrically along the axis of the device. This chirped grating structure is shown to decrease the gain competition by reducing the spatial overlap between the degenerate modes. Stable mode beating between the two lowest order lasing modes results, and this beating produces high-frequency output self-pulsations which can be used for millimeter-wave and soliton pulse train generation. An exact closed-form expression for the output intensity of an antisymmetrically chirped index-coupled DFB laser, as a function of the unsaturated gain, is also derived. The expression is valid for arbitrary levels of gain saturation     

Pulse evolution in a photorefractive self-pumped phase conjugatorwith transmission grating geometry

The effect of grating dispersion on pulse evolution in a photorefractive self-pumped phase conjugator is analyzed. The broadening factors and the time-dependent phases of self-pumped phase-conjugate pulses of unchirped and chirped Gaussian pulses are obtained. When the grating dispersion and the angular dispersion cancel the material dispersion, the self-pumped phase-conjugate pulse has a minimum width, which is determined by the first-order dispersion of the grating. The self-pumped phase conjugation of an unchirped Gaussian pulse broadens and is linearly chirped whereas the self-pumped phase conjugation of a chirped Gaussian pulse is compressed when the dispersion-induced chirp cancels the initial chirp     

光栅参数对线性啁啾光纤光栅偏振特性的影响

研究了单模线性啁啾光纤光栅的偏振相关损耗特性。运用耦合模理论和传输矩阵分析法推出了反射光的偏振相关损耗,并模拟了光栅的反射谱和偏振相关损耗随光栅参数和双折射量的变化曲线。模拟显示双折射值的变化对啁啾光栅偏振相关损耗的影响非常显著, 尤其是在带边比较陡峭时。啁啾光栅的偏振相关损耗也受光栅的啁啾系数和调制深度的影响。这表明线性啁啾光栅的偏振相关损耗不光依赖光栅双折射量,还依赖其啁啾系数等其他参数。实验结果与理论模拟基本吻合。     

Investigation on reflection spectra of chirped and phase-shifted fiber Bragg gratings

The characteristics of chirped and phase-shifted fiber Bragg gratings have been investigated by the use of transfer matrix formulation. While the characteristics of a chirped and phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating are the same as those of non- chirped one in some important aspects, both the reflection and transmission windows of a chirped and phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating can be broadened in a wide range. Therefore, chirped and phase-shifted fiber Bragg gratings will have applications in WDM or DWDM optical communication systems. The work in this paper can be used to design the new devices based on chirped and phase-shifted fiber Bragg gratings.
