Ultrafast gating using a nonlinear Sagnac interferometer
Ultrafast gating is a powerful technique for applications such as time resolved spectroscopy [ 1-3 ], imaging through scattering media [4-7 ], or nonlinear optics [ 8 ]. Several methods have been used, each of which has its own limitations. The Kerr shutter [ 3 ] is extremely fast (femtosecond) but requires high peak power lasers. It has a maximum transmission of approximately 10 percent, and i...
متن کاملSingle-photon Sagnac interferometer
We present the first experimental demonstration of the optical Sagnac effect at the single-photon level. Using a high quality guided-wave heralded singlephoton source at 1550 nm and a fibre optics setup, we obtain an interference pattern with net visibilities up to (99.2 ± 0.4%). On the basis of this high visibility and the compactness of the setup, the interest of such a system for fibre optic...
متن کاملSensitivity analysis of the Sagnac-effect optical-fiber ring interferometer.
The sensitivity of a recently reported optical-fiber ring interferometer as a gyroscope has been analyzed. Photomixing SNRs were derived for the detection schemes. Noise sources due to the Rayleigh, Brillouin, Mie, and core-cladding interface light scattering processes are assessed quantitatively. Optimum gyroscope sensitivities are discussed via numerical examples for optical wavelengths lambd...
متن کاملUse of Sagnac in Michelson Interferometer for Vortex Array Generation
A new configuration for optical vortex interferometer (OVI) is presented. The OVI makes use of dual arm interferometric architecture in which one of the arms contains a Sagnac interferometer. The vortex lattice is generated using superposition of three plane waves or spherical waves of same curvature.
متن کاملSemiconductor-Optical-Amplifier Mach-Zehnder Interferometer Based Optical Networks
In this paper, an all-optical AND logic scheme which exploits the cross-phase modulation (XPM) effect in semiconductor-optical-amplifier-assisted Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (SOA-MZI), is proposed, performance analyzed and parameters optimized. The proposal is validated and the system performance under various parameters is examined through numerical simulations. With only moderate parameters, ...
