Demonstration of polarization pulling using a fiber-optic parametric amplifier.
We report the observation of all-optical polarization pulling of an initially polarization-scrambled signal using parametric amplification in a highly nonlinear optical fiber. Broadband polarization pulling has been achieved both for the signal and idler waves with up to 25 dB gain using the strong polarization sensitivity of parametric amplifiers. We further derive the probability distribution...
متن کاملFiber optical parametric amplifier with double-pass pump configuration.
Characteristics of fiber optical parametric amplifier (FOPA) with double-pass pump configuration are experimentally investigated. The double-pass pump FOPA exhibits more than two-fold steeper gain slope in comparison to the conventional FOPA due to elongation of effective fiber length. In the L-band amplification band, a secondary idler is generated and used as the transmission signal in lieu o...
متن کاملGain smoothening filter in two-segment fiber-optical parametric amplifier
This paper demonstrates a method to remove the gain ripple profile specifically for a two-segment fiber optical parametric amplifier arising from the dispersion differences between the fiber gain medium and the standard single mode fiber attached to the optical components. This is achieved by using a simple design that incorporates a gain smoothening filter at the mid-stage of the amplifier. Th...

متن کاملGeneration of 1.024-Tb/s Nyquist-WDM phase-conjugated twin vector waves by a polarization-insensitive optical parametric amplifier for fiber-nonlinearity-tolerant transmission.
We experimentally demonstrate the generation of 1.024-Tb/s Nyquist-WDM phase-conjugated vector twin waves (PCTWs), consisting of eight 128-Gb/s polarization-division-multiplexed QPSK signals and their idlers, by a broadband polarization-insensitive fiber optic parametric amplifier. This novel all-optical signal processing approach to generate WDM-PCTWs enables a 2-fold reduction in the needed o...
