چکیده
In this letter we present a technique for the implementation of Nth-order ultrafast temporal differentiators. This technique is based on two oppositely chirped fiber Bragg gratings in which the grating profile maps the spectral response of the Nth-order differentiator. Examples of 1(st), 2(nd), and 4(th) order differentiators are designed and numerically simulated.

Ultrafast all-optical Nth-order differentiator and simultaneous repetition-rate multiplier of periodic pulse train.
The letter presents a technique for Nth-order differentiation of periodic pulse train, which can simultaneously multiply the input repetition rate. This approach uses a single linearly chirped apodized fiber Bragg grating, which grating profile is designed to map the spectral response of the Nth-order differentiator, and the chirp introduces a dispersion that, besides space-to-frequency mapping...
متن کاملOptical 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...
متن کاملProgrammable wavelength-tunable second-order optical temporal differentiator based on a linearly chirped fiber Bragg grating and a digital thermal controller.
We proposed and experimentally demonstrated an all-fiber structured wavelength-tunable second-order optical temporal differentiator based on a linearly chirped fiber Bragg grating and a digital-controlled thermal array. The central frequency of the differentiation can be reconfigured from 192.141 to 192.616 THz by a programmable circuit. In the experiment, a second-order differentiator with 3 d...
متن کاملInformation processing with longitudinal spectral decomposition of ultrafast pulses.
We describe what we believe to be novel methods for waveform synthesis and detection relying on longitudinal spectral decomposition of subpicosecond optical pulses. Optical processing is performed in both all-fiber and mixed fiber-free-space systems. Demonstrated applications include ultrafast optical waveform synthesis, microwave spectrum analysis, and high-speed electrical arbitrary waveform ...
متن کاملOptimization of Bistability in Nonlinear Chalcogenide Fiber Bragg Grating for All Optical Switch and Memory Applications
We solve the coupled mode equations governing the chalcogenide nonlinear fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) numerically, and obtain the bistability characteristics. The characteristics of the chalcogenide nonlinear FBGs such as: switching threshold intensity, bistability interval and on-off switching ratio are studied. The effects of FBG length and its third order nonlinear refractive index on FBG cha...
