Micromachined Integrated Optics for Free-Space Interconnections
A novel surface micro-machined micro-optical bench (MOB) has been demonstrated. Free-space micro-optics such as micro-Fresnel lenses, rotatable mirrors, beam-splitters and gratings are implemented on a single Si chip using IC-like microfabrication processes. Self-aligned hybrid integration with semiconductor lasers are also demonstrated for the first time. The MOB technology realizes a microopt...
متن کاملMicromachined Free-Space Integrated Optics
We report a novel surface-micromachined micro-optical bench (MOB) technology which enables us to monolithically integrate "flipped-up" free-space optical elements with micro-positioners and micro-actuators. This technology allows complete optical systems be implemented on a single Si chip using IC-like microfabrication processes. We have, for the first time, successfully fabricated micro-Fresne...
متن کاملUltrabroadband photoconductive detection: Comparison with free-space electro-optic sampling
The spectral response of a low-temperature-grown GaAs photoconductive ~PC! antenna is compared with that of the electro-optic sampling technique for the frequency region up to 40 THz. The spectral response of the PC antenna for broadband detection is found to be determined by the temporal profile of the number of photocarriers injected by ultrashort optical gate pulses. © 2001 American Institut...
متن کاملFiber coupling with adaptive optics for free-space optical communication
We describe an adaptive optical fiber coupling system for free-space optical communication comprising a microelectromechanical deformable mirror and a VLSI gradient descent controller for model-free performance optimization. A comparison of Strehl ratio maximization with direct model-free coupling efficiency optimization revealed an advantage of the latter method.
متن کاملAnalysis of Sensitivity of Photoconductive Receivers for Free space optical communication systems
In this paper we examine theoretically the performance of an optical receiver based on an Hg0.77Cd0.23Te photoconductive detector for its possible application at 9.6 μm free space optical communication system at moderate bit rates. A rigorous noise model of the receiver has been developed for this purpose by incorporating all significant sources of noise. Our analysis reveals that the photocond...
