Theory of fiber optic Raman polarizers.
We propose and apply a theoretical description of a Raman amplifier based on the vector model of randomly birefringent fibers to the characterization of Raman polarizers. The Raman polarizer is a special type of Raman amplifier with the property of producing a highly repolarized beam when fed by relatively weak and unpolarized light.
متن کاملAnalytic theory of fiber-optic Raman polarizers.
The Raman polarizer is a Raman amplifier which not only amplifies but also repolarizes light. We propose a relatively simple and analytically tractable model - the ideal Raman polarizer, for describing the operation of this device. The model efficiently determines key device parameters such as the degree of polarization, the alignment parameter, the gain and the RIN variance.
متن کاملNoise Suppression Phenomenon in Fiber Raman Amplifier
The problem of small bit error rate is actual in fiber Raman amplifiers. Our experimental data on the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) with backward pumping as a base of optical noise evaluation are presented in this paper. Raman gain spectrum for useful Stokes low-powered signal is calculated and compared with obtained spectrum of non-coherent ASE noise. It is shown that output optical sig...
متن کاملNoise in Fiber Optic Communication Links
The physics of noise in optical communication links is of great interest in the design of fiber optic communication systems. In this report the role of noise in optical communications, and how it can limit the performance of optical communications systems, will be examined. The origins of noise in the various optical and analog electronic components will be discussed, and a methodology for a “n...
متن کاملPump-to-Stokes relative intensity noise transfer and analytical modeling of mid-infrared silicon Raman lasers.
An analytical model for mid-infrared (mid-IR) silicon Raman lasers (SRLs) is developed. The relative intensity noise (RIN) transfer from the pump to the Stokes in the lasers is also investigated. The analytical model can be used as a versatile and efficient tool for analysis, design and optimization of mid-IR SRLs. It is shown that conversion efficiency of 70% is attainable and the low-frequenc...
