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。

脉冲形状对半导体激光放大器用于啁啾补偿的影响

光脉冲经过增益饱和的行波半导体激光放大器后,由于放大器的自相位调制,使放大脉冲附加上频率啁啾。合适的附加啁啾不但能抵销入射脉冲的初始啁啾,而且还有可能借助简单的群速度延迟线对脉冲进行压缩。本文计算了不同形状的入射脉冲经光放大器放大后的输出脉冲形状及其附加的频率啁啾,分析了它们对光放大器用于啁啾补偿的影响。     

Carrier Pulses at Microwave and Millimeter-Wave Frequencies

This paper discusses some recent experimental results obtained using special gallium arsenide point-contact diodes for the generation of phase-locked carrier pulses in the microwave and millimeter-wave bands. Several methods of generating such pulses are described. 11.2-Gc microwave phase-locked carrier pulses of about 1.0-nanosecond base duration have been generated at a 160-megabit/second rate. These microwave pulses, which are generated directly from a baseband signal, normally have peak power levels in excess of 0.5 mw. Millimeter-wave phase-locked carrier pulses have also been generated at 56 Gc. These very high frequency pulses have a base duration as short as 0.25 nanosecond and occur at a 160-megabit/second rate. Furthermore, phase-locked carrier pulses have been generated at frequencies as high as 89.6 Gc. A simple method of generating nonphase-locked 0.3-nanosecond millimeter-wave carrier pulses directly from 1.92 gigabit/second rate baseband pulses has also been investigated. The experimental arrangement used to demonstrate the "turn on" and "turn off" principle of transient carrier pulse generation is described.

Synchronous mode-locking in passively mode-locked semiconductor laser diodes using optical short pulses repeated at subharmonics of the cavity round-trip frequency

Synchronous mode-locking was achieved in passively mode-locked semiconductor lasers using optical pulses with repetition rates at subharmonics of the cavity round-trip frequency. Stable and continuous mode-locked pulses at 8.5 GHz were generated when the repetition rate of the control optical pulses was 4.25 GHz (2nd subharmonic). The timing jitter of the mode-locked pulses was reduced to 1 ps. The relationship between repetition rates of the control pulses and the realization of stable and continuous mode-locking was examined.

Theoretical study on pulse-shaping of Stokes pulse with steep leading edge by two Brillouin amplifiers

A novel configuration of two Brillouin amplifiers, which contains a main amplifier combined with a reshaping amplifier, is suggested to control pulse shape of Stokes pulses with steep leading edge. Dependences of pulse shapes on several param- eters are numerically simulated. By changing the distance between the two amplifiers, the leading edge of amplified pulses can be finely adjusted. Smooth and symmetrical pulses or pulses with slow leading-edge are achieved. Theoretical re- searches prove that this system is fit for shaping pulses with steep leading edge, especially, for controlling leading edge of pulses. The results provide useful and necessary theoretical basis and guidance for the future experimental research.     

Generation and the characteristics of current pulses from alloyed-type low-conductivity bulk GaAs

Current pulses with frequencies in the vicinity of 1 kHz were observed in low-conductivity copper-doped GaAs. The coherent current pulses were obtained by applying an ac half-sinusoid voltage to low-conductivity bulk GaAs samples with indium ohmic contacts. The repetition rate increased as the applied voltage was increased. Illumination of the specimen surface or change in ambient temperature had a strong effect on the current pulses. The current pulses are due to ionization of deep levels and are compared to the microplasma pulses observed in Si and Ge p-n junctions.     

Pedestal suppression from compressed femtosecond pulses using anonlinear fiber loop mirror

The compression of higher order soliton pulses in dispersion decreasing fibers (DDF's) generates ultrashort fundamental soliton-like pulses accompanied by a broad low-intensity pedestal component. In this paper, we investigate the subsequent removal of the pedestal using a nonlinear optical fiber loop mirror (NOLM) to produce high-quality pulses. The influence of higher order effects such as stimulated Raman scattering and third-order fiber dispersion on the pedestal removal from ultrashort pulses are considered, and the effectiveness of using dispersion-flattened fiber within the loop is shown. The technique is experimentally demonstrated for 540-fs pulses generated by compression in DDF. In this case, high-quality pulses are produced by pedestal removal using a NOLM constructed from dispersion-shifted fiber

Influence of Initial Chirp on Propagation of Super-Gaussian Pulse inside Fiber

Under the condition of combined effects of group-velocity dispersion and self phase modulation, the step Fourier method is used to simulate the propagation of initial chirped super Gaussian pulses inside fiber. The initial chirp influences the shapes of super Gaussian pulses in propagation process, and positive and negative chirps have different effects. For the existing of initial chirp, the splits of pulses and the spreading speed move ahead and increase. When the amplitude of super Gaussian pulses increases by 1.4 times, in the range of | C |<1.5, pulses can keep good shapes along their propagation distance. Even if | C | increases to 3.5, their shapes are also good. Most energy of pulse is still at the middle parts. These results show that, for the initial chirped super Gaussian pulses, the influence of initial chirp will be decreased by increasing the intensity of pulses. This will be of benefit to optical communication.     

Infrared pulses of 1 picosecond duration tunable between 4 μmand 18 μm

The generation of infrared pulses via difference frequency mixing of Nd:glass laser pulses and infrared dye laser pulses is discussed. Tuning between 4 and 18 μm is achieved by various combinations of laser dyes (dye No. 5 and A 9860) and nonlinear crystals (AgGaS₂ and GaSe). The energy of the mid-infrared pulses is in the order of a microjoule; and the photon conversion efficiency is ≲2%. The duration of the nearly bandwidth limited pulses is measured to be 1 ps. The system operates with a repetition rate of 1 Hz

Investigation of amplitude noise and timing jitter of supercontinuum spectrum-sliced pulses

We numerically investigate the amplitude-noise and the timing jitter of pulses obtained by slicing coherent supercontinuum spectra. Applications such as time-division-multiplexing/wavelength-division-multiplexing systems and all-optical data regeneration are addressed. System parameters for optimizing the quality of sliced pulses are also discussed. We show that supercontinuum generation is a suitable method for generating amplitude-stable pulses and that no timing jitter is associated to the sliced pulses.     

Parameter relations for the Shinnar-Le Roux selective excitation pulse design algorithm [NMR imaging

An overview of the Shinnar-Le Roux (SLR) algorithm is presented. It is shown how the performance of SLR pulses can be very accurately specified analytically. This reveals how to design a pulse that produces a specified slice profile and allows the pulse designer to trade off analytically the parameters describing the pulse performance. Several examples are presented to illustrate the more important tradeoffs. These include linear-phase and minimum- and maximum-phase pulses. Linear-phase pulses can be refocused with a gradient reversal and can be used as spin-echo pulses. Minimum- and maximum-phase pulses have better slice profiles, but cannot be completely refocused.
