Tunable all optical delay via slow and fast light propagation in a Raman assisted fiber optical parametric amplifier: a route to all optical buffering.
We propose and demonstrate the use of narrow band optical parametric amplification for tunable slow and fast light propagation in optical fibers. The parametric gain is coupled to the Raman process which changes the gain value moderately but modifies the gain spectral shape. Consequently, the delay is enhanced at short wavelengths while it is moderated at long wavelengths. The maximum delay and...
متن کاملWide-bandwidth, tunable, multiple-pulse-width optical delays using slow light in cesium vapor.
We demonstrate an all-optical delay line in hot cesium vapor that tunably delays 275 ps input pulses up to 6.8 ns and 740 input ps pulses up to 59 ns (group index of approximately 200) with little pulse distortion. The delay is made tunable with a fast reconfiguration time (hundreds of ns) by optically pumping out of the atomic ground states.
متن کاملLarge tunable fractional delay of slow light pulse and its application to fast optical correlator.
The slow light device based on photonic crystal coupled waveguide was fabricated, and a tunable delay of 72 ps was obtained for 2-ps-wide slow light pulses by local heating, which corresponds to a tunable fractional delay of 36. This value was further enhanced to 110 by compressing the output pulses through self-phase modulation and dispersion compensation in external fibers. We applied this de...
متن کاملNumerical study of all-optical slow-light delays via stimulated Brillouin scattering in an optical fiber
We study numerically all-optical slow-light delays in room-temperature single-mode optical fibers induced by stimulated Brillouin scattering. We consider the propagation of a pulse through a cw-pumped Brillouin fiber amplifier, where the carrier frequency of the pulse is tuned near the Stokes resonance. Pulse delay and broadening of the Stokes pulse are studied in the small-signal and gain-satu...
متن کاملTHz-bandwidth tunable slow light in semiconductor optical amplifiers.
We report tunable fractional delays of 250% for 700 fs pulses propagating in a 1.55 mum semiconductor optical amplifier at room temperature. This large fractional delay is attributed to a spectral hole created by the propagating pulses for pulses with duration shorter than the carrier heating relaxation time. Delay can be tuned electrically by adjusting the current with low amplitude variation ...
