Highly stable polarization independent Mach-Zehnder interferometer.
We experimentally demonstrate optical Mach-Zehnder interferometer utilizing displaced Sagnac configuration to enhance its phase stability. The interferometer with footprint of 27×40 cm offers individually accessible paths and shows phase deviation less than 0.4° during a 250 s long measurement. The phase drift, evaluated by means of Allan deviation, stays below 3° or 7 nm for 1.5 h without any ...
متن کاملMach–Zehnder–Fano interferometer
We introduce a concept of the Mach–Zehnder–Fano interferometer by inserting a cavity exhibiting Fano resonance into a conventional interferometer. By employing the scattering-matrix approach, we demonstrate that the transmission becomes sensitive to a position of the cavity such that an asymmetric structure exhibits a series of narrow resonances with almost perfect reflection. We discuss how to...
متن کاملHighly linear heterogeneous-integrated Mach-Zehnder interferometer modulators on Si.
In this paper we demonstrate highly linear Mach-Zehnder interferometer modulators utilizing heterogeneous integration on a Si substrate (HS-MZM). A record high dynamic range was achieved for silicon devices, obtained using hybrid III-V/Si phase modulation sections and single drive push-pull operation, demonstrating a spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) of 112 dB∙Hz2/3 at 10 GHz, compa...
متن کاملAll-fiber three-path Mach-Zehnder interferometer.
We report the realization of a three-path Mach-Zehnder interferometer using single-mode fibers and two integrated 3 x 3 fiber couplers. We observed enhanced phase sensitivity, as compared with two-path interferometers, with a visibility of the interference pattern of more than 97%. This interferometer has an analog in two-photon interferometry, and we believe it to be the first nontrivial examp...
متن کاملBell’s inequality for the Mach-Zehnder interferometer
If a single photon impinges on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, the probability of detecting the photon in a certain output channel depends on the difference between the phase delays imposed by the two interfering channels. The photon behaves as if it goes through both interfering channels. On the other hand, if detectors are inserted into each interfering channel, the photon is only detected in ...
