For the first time, a nested-ring Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) on silicon-on-insulator is realized using a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor-based process. In this letter, we verify that the device operates in two modes: the inner-loop resonance dominant mode due to strong build-up inside the inner-ring, and the double-Fano resonances mode due to strong light interaction with the outer loop. The results show that the inner-loop resonance is highly sensitive to the MZI arm imbalance compared to the double-Fano resonance mode. Based on these considerations, we obtain a good fit between theory and experiment. 相似文献

We demonstrate the polarization-insensitive operation of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI)-based lithium niobate switch with a silica waveguide polarization beam splitter. The splitter is composed of an MZI with a half wave plate installed in one arm, and exhibits a polarization extinction ratio of more than 15 dB. The switch functions for both polarizations with an extinction ratio of more than 20 dB, a polarization-dependent loss of 0.1 dB and a switching speed of 40 ps. 相似文献

A miniaturized single fiber in-line Mach-Zehnder interferometer is proposed for high-temperature sensing. The interferometer has a microcavity in one of its arms, formed by removing part of the fiber core and cladding, while the other arm remains in the fiber core. Because the fiber core exhibits a temperature coefficient of refractive index which is different from that of air, the interferometer is sensitive to temperature variation. The microcavity structured interferometer also has excellent sustainability to high temperatures up to 1100°C . The system is compact, reliable and can detect the temperature at precise location. 相似文献

Using a single, dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator and high-speed electronics, differential quadrature phase-shift keying modulation and detection are demonstrated for a bit rate of 20 Gb/s. Back-to-back system performance is measured, and the receiver sensitivity is found to be -32.25 dBm. 相似文献

We present an ultracompact and high-performance optical interleaver based on a microring assisted Mach-Zehnder interferometer using an ultrahigh-index-contrast waveguide (17% Delta). The device, a 100/200-GHz interleaver at 1.55-mum region, exhibits flat and nearly square passband and better than -30-dB stopband extinction ratio. Fiber-to-fiber loss is -2.2 dB. Passband bandwidth is 90 and 121 GHz at -1 and -20 dB, respectively. The dimension of this interleaver chip is 12times1 mm. Design optimization is also discussed for further performance improvement. 相似文献

An optical coherence multiplexing system for Faraday sensors is proposed. With an asymmetric Mach-Zehnder (M-Z) interferometer, the linearly polarized light from a Faraday sensor is decomposed into two orthogonal modes, which are interrogated by a path-scanning Michelson interferometer at different path positions. The variations in the intensities of these two modes are utilized to deduce the rotation of the polarization plane, which is related to the measurand tested by the Faraday sensor. By employing multiple asymmetric M-Z interferometers with arm-lengths carefully controlled, the sensing signals of the multiplexed Faraday sensors are obtained and well separated in one scan of the Michelson interferometer. 相似文献

We propose a microresonator scheme for a Mach-Zehnder interferometer in which a microresonator is side coupled to one arm and the other is inserted in the other arm, to produce coupled resonator-induced transparency (CRIT) and absorption (CRIA) effects. In this system, CRIT and CRIA effects with one effect next to another over a frequency range when two microresonators are identical and Fano-resonance line shape when the sizes of two microresonators are unequal are achieved. We also theoretically investigate the improving optical bistability characteristic based on CRIT. 相似文献

We developed a theoretical analysis of a novel method of ultra-wideband impulse radio signals all-optical generation based on cross-phase modulation and cross-gain modulation in a nonsymmetric integrated Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) containing quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifier. The proposed method is promising due to the advantages of compact, easily controlled, and low energy integrated MZI structures as compared to optical fiber systems. 相似文献

We propose and demonstrate a novel colorless tunable optical dispersion compensator (TODC) consisting of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) connected to an ar- rayed-waveguide grating with a thermooptic lens. The MZI approximately doubles the magnitude bandwidth at large dispersion settings. We demonstrate compensation of a 43-Gb/s nonreturn-to-zero signal dispersed over a range of -844 to + 1700 ps/nm. To our knowledge, +1700 ps/nm is the largest demonstrated dispersion compensation amount of a 40-Gb/s signal with a single TODC. 相似文献

InP-based Mach-Zehnder modulators with capacitively loaded traveling-wave electrodes (CL-TWEs), which have segmented structures along the optical waveguides, are presented. Devices with various structural parameters for gap length (the length between adjacent segmented phase modulators) and total active length were fabricated and investigated both optically and electrically. Excellent characteristics such as characteristic impedance matching to 50 Omega and low electrical propagation losses were obtained. Using the optimum structures, 40- and 10-Gb/s large signal operations were successfully performed with peak-to-peak driving voltages of 3.0 and 1.2 V, respectively. The effects of structural parameters, such as gap length and total active length on electrical and optical modulation properties, are discussed. 相似文献

An all-optical NAND gate using integrated SOA-based Mach–Zehnder interferometer is proposed and demonstrated for the first time. Numerical analysis shows the switching window of the proposed NAND gate, which is synchronous with the dynamic gain experienced by the probe pulses. The effects of the SOA and input data parameters on the switching performance are discussed. The operation of the proposed NAND gate with 10 Gb/s RZ pseudorandom bit sequences is simulated and the results demonstrate its effectiveness. This NAND gate could provide a new possibility for all-optical routing in future all-optical networks. 相似文献

Manipulation of light using subwavelength waveguides is a key technology in the development of miniaturized photonic circuits, which possess various advantages over their electronic counterparts. The novel approach presented for such waveguiding involves the propagation of exciton polaritons (EPs), which are quasi‐particles formed by strong exciton–photon coupling, along organic dye nanofibers. A self‐assembled nanofiber of thiacyanine (TC) with a width of ≈200 nm propagates the EPs created by an optical excitation over a submillimeter‐scale distance and passes through a bend with a micrometer‐scale radius with low bending loss. To demonstrate the remarkable potential of EP‐based miniaturized photonic circuits, asymmetric Mach–Zehnder interferometers (AMZIs) are fabricated with TC nanofibers by micromanipulation. The AMZIs with a footprint of ≈20 μm × 20 μm exhibit a visibility of nearly unity and function as channel drop filters with the considerably high extinction ratio of up to ≈15 dB. Such high‐performance and ultracompact channel drop filters operating in the visible wavelength region have rarely been developed with other waveguide technologies. The coherent properties of the EPs in the nanofibers are investigated using time‐resolved experiments. The coherent properties provide useful information for designing EP‐based photonic circuits and for understanding EP dynamics in a nanofiber. 相似文献

We report the design, fabrication, and testing of a traveling-wave Mach-Zehnder modulator on a GaAs substrate. Operating at 870-nm wavelength, we obtained an extremely low driving voltage of 0.45 V and a high measurement-instrument-limited small-signal modulation bandwidth of 18 GHz, projected to an estimated bandwidth of 50 GHz. We have also monolithically integrated photodetectors with an impulse response of 8-ps full-width at half-maximum, and a saturation power of 330 mW, giving a flexible high-performance platform for RF photonics. 相似文献
