Adiabatic thermo-optic Mach-Zehnder switch.
In this Letter, we propose and demonstrate a high-speed and power-efficient thermo-optic switch using an adiabatic bend with a directly integrated silicon heater to minimize the heat capacity and therein maximize the performance of the thermo-optic switch. A rapid, τ=2.4 μs thermal time constant and a low electrical power consumption of P(π)=12.7 mW/π-phase shift were demonstrated representing ...
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 کاملQuadrature Mach–Zehnder interferometer with application in optical coherence tomography
A novel quadrature interferometer based on Mach–Zehnder configuration and a 3 × 3 fibre coupler is presented. Measurements showing instantaneous extraction of both real and complex parts of the interferometric signal are described. The features of this quadrature interferometric platform are discussed with a focus on signal-to-noise ratio and optical power handling.
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, ...
متن کاملStabilized fiber-optic Mach-Zehnder interferometer for carrier-frequency rejection.
We have demonstrated stabilization of a fiber-optic Mach-Zehnder interferometer, with a centimeter-scale path difference, to the transmission minimum for the carrier wave of a frequency-modulated laser beam. A time-averaged extinction of 32 dB, limited by the bandwidth of the feedback, was maintained over several hours. The interferometer was used to remove the carrier wave from a 780 nm laser ...
