Optical pulse compression based on nonlinear silicon waveguides and chirped Bragg gratings
Due to the growing demand for higher bandwidth, employing optical devices instead of electronic devices in data transmission systems has attracted much attention in recent years. Optical switches, modulators and wavelength converters are a few examples of the required optical devices. CMOS compatible fabrication of these devices, leads to much more growing of this technology. Optical pulse comp...
متن کاملPulse Switching in Nonlinear Fiber Bragg Gratings
The influence of the Kerr-like nonlinearity in the switching characteristics of fiber Bragg gratings is studied. Two types of apodization profiles are considered: uniform and raisedcosine apodized gratings. The influence of the bit-rate and the wavelength detuning of the incident pulses in the nonlinear response of the grating is analyzed. The deterioration in the pulses caused by the nonlinear...
متن کاملNonlinear pulse propagation in birefringent fiber Bragg gratings.
We present two sets of equations to describe nonlinear pulse propagation in a birefringent fiber Bragg grating. The first set uses a coupled-mode formalism to describe light in or near the photonic band gap of the grating. The second set is a pair of coupled nonlinear Schroedinger equations. We use these equations to examine viable switching experiments in the presence of birefringence. We show...
متن کاملNumerical analysis of nonuniform Bragg gratings
The characteristics of guided waves scattered by nonuniform Bragg waveguide gratings are systematically investigated by using a staircase approximation, which is a combination of the building blocks of the multimode network theory and a rigorous mode-matching procedure. The bent dielectric waveguides, periodically with Bragg gratings of rectangular profile and chirped waveguide gratings, are ta...
متن کاملNearly chirp- and pedestal-free pulse compression in nonlinear fiber Bragg gratings
We demonstrate almost chirpand pedestal-free optical pulse compression in a nonlinear fiber Bragg grating with exponentially decreasing dispersion. The exponential dispersion profile can be well-approximated by a few gratings with different constant dispersions. The required number of sections is proportional to the compression ratio, but inversely proportional to the initial chirp value. We pr...
