چکیده

Reshaping of ultrashort optical pulses at 1.53 ,um by using an integrated acousto-optic tunable filter is reported. Control of the optical pulse shape is accomplished by adjusting the different radio-frequency electrical signals driving the acousto-optic filter. This is to our knowledge the first demonstration of ultrashort pulse shaping using an integrated-optic device and establishes a new application area for integrated wavelength-division-multiplexed devices, namely, for manipulation of coherent, ultrafast time-domain signals.

Sidelobe suppression in all-fiber acousto-optic tunable filter using torsional acoustic wave.

We propose two techniques to suppress intrinsic sidelobe spectra in all-fiber acousto-optic tunable filter using torsional acoustic wave. The techniques are based on either double-pass filter configuration or axial tailoring of mode coupling strength along an acousto-optic interaction region in a highly birefringent optical fiber. The sidelobe peak in the filter spectrum is experimentally suppr...

Designing voltage tunable single and multi-channel optical filter with 1DDPC nano-structure

An electro-optic tunable single and multi-channel optical filter based on one-dimensional defective photonic crystal (1DDPC) structure is proposed. A couple of externally tunable defects in arrangement of (AB)5D1(BA)D2(BA)5, where A and B are dielectric materials, D1 and D2 are the tunable defects are used. The defects are composed of the ferroelectric LiNbO3 crystals and two pairs of thin Ag l...

Electronically tuned picosecond Ti:sapphire laser

A widely electronically tunable picosecond Ti:sapphire laser is demonstrated without any mechanical rotation or movement for the first time. With the second harmonics of the Nd:YAG laser as a pump source, the laser produces 10 ps pulses with a maximum output power of 350 mW. The wavelength of the self-starting ultrashort laser pulses can be rapidly and arbitrarily accessed in the region from 76...
