Asymmetric optical loop mirror: analysis of an all-optical switch.
We present an analysis of the optical loop mirror in which a nonlinear optical element is asymmetrically placed in the loop. This analysis provides a general framework for the operation of a recently invented ultrafast all-optical switch known as the terahertz optical asymmetric demultiplexer. We show that a loop with small asymmetry, such as that used in the terahertz optical asymmetric demult...
متن کاملWavelength Conversion Using Bismuth-based Nonlinear Optical Loop Mirror
We proposed and experimentally demonstrated that wideband tunable wavelength conversion can be performed by using only 1.9 meter of bismuth-based highly-nonlinear fiber in optical loop mirror configuration (Bi-NOLM). Both inverted and non-inverted wavelength conversion of NRZ-formatted signal at 10 Gb/s were carried out. The range of wavelength conversion is 56 nm. No stimulated Brillouin scatt...
متن کاملEasily tunable nonlinear optical loop mirror based on polarization asymmetry.
The operation of an unconventional, power-symmetric nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) is investigated. Its principle is based on the creation of a polarization asymmetry between the counterpropagating beams, through the use of a quarter-wave plate and highly twisted fiber in the loop. Using a very intuitive approach, we propose a simple although comprehensive description of the NOLM operatio...
متن کاملNonlinear loop mirror-based all-optical signal processing in fiber-optic communications
All-optical data processing is expected to play a major role in future optical communications. The fiber nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) is a valuable tool in optical signal processing applications. This paper presents an overview of our recent advances in developing NOLM-based all-optical processing techniques for application in fiber-optic communications. The use of in-line NOLMs as a ge...
متن کاملSoliton switching using cascaded nonlinear-optical loop mirrors.
We demonstrate multiple-peaked switching in a nonlinear-optical loop mirror and present an experimental investigation of device cascading in the soliton regime based on a sequence of two independent nonlinear-optical loop mirrors. Cascading leads to an enhanced switching response with sharper switching edges, flattened peaks, and increased interpeak extinction ratios. We observe that pulses eme...
