چکیده

Chirped fiber Bragg gratings are used as low-loss, dispersion compensation modules for telecommunications applications. Here we use them to make an optical processor that compresses the bandwidth of electronic signals before digitization by an analog-to-digital converter. ©2007 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (230.0250) Optoelectronics, (060.2360) Fiber optics and optical communications :Fiber optics links and subsystems.

Optical pulse compression based on nonlinear silicon waveguides and chirped Bragg gratings

Due to the growing demand for higher bandwidth, employing optical devices instead of electronic devices in data transmission systems has attracted much attention in recent years. Optical switches, modulators and wavelength converters are a few examples of the required optical devices. CMOS compatible fabrication of these devices, leads to much more growing of this technology. Optical pulse comp...

Amplification of optical delay by use of matched linearly chirped fiber Bragg gratings.

We describe the use of a matched linearly chirped fiber Bragg grating (FBG) pair as a key element in an adjustable optical delay line. This delay line has the unique property that the achievable optical group delay is orders of magnitude greater (factor of 10(2) in our experiment) than the actual physical displacement. We demonstrate operation of such an optical delay line over a delay range of...

Beam Reflection by Transversely Chirped Volume Bragg Grating

Reflective uniform volume Bragg gratings (VBGs) in photo-thermo-refractive (PTR) glass are used as narrow-band output couplers in high-power lasers with different gain media [1]. VBGs with longitudinally chirped grating period are used for stretching and compression of ultrashort laser pulses in well established chirped pulse amplification schemes [2]. Here we discuss reflective VBGs with chirp...

Chirped in-fiber Bragg gratings for compensation

It is well known that chirped (aperiodic) refractiveindex Bragg gratings can be used for compensating for the dispersion of optical fiber waveguides.' When used in reflection mode (in contrast to transmission mode), such Bragg gratings exhibit large dispersion. As well, the sign of the dispersion in reflection mode is easily controlled. Together these two characteristics suggest the use of chir...

Implementation of an All-Fiber Variable Optical Delay Line with a Pair of Linearly Chirped Fiber Bragg Gratings

We implemented all-fiber delay line using linearly chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBG), which can be applicable for reflectometry or optical coherence tomography (OCT). Compared with the previously reported delay lines, the proposed fiber-based optical delay line has in principle novel advantages such as automatic dispersion cancellations without additional treatment and a gain in optical delay...
