This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Processing of high speed optical signals in the optical domain, referred to as optical signal processing, is required for many applications in the telecommunication systems and networks. Many optical signal processing techniques have been studied in the literature where most of them are based on nonlinear optics such as 2nd order and 3rd order nonlinear effects. A wide range of nonlinear media are used for performing these nonlinear optical signal processing applications such as optical fibres, semiconductor optical amplifiers, and different types of optical waveguides. In this thesis, we use nonlinear optics to perform nonlinear optical signal processing and microwave photonics applications. First we propose and experimentally demonstrate an optical signal processing module that will be used for recognition of spectral amplitude code (SAC) labels in optical packet-switched networks. We use the nonlinear effect FWM in a highly nonlinear fibre (HNLF) for generation of a unique FWM idler for each SAC label referred to as a label identifier (LI). A serial array of fibre Bragg gratings is then used to reflect the LI wavelengths. Each LI is associated with a unique amount of delay between two optical signals received at two photodiodes. Label recognition is then achieved by measuring this unique time delay. An experiment is conducted where two variable-length data packets are transmitted over a 50-km dispersion-compensated span of fibre and switched at a forwarding node. The SAC labels are successfully recognized, and we obtain error-free transmission for the switched packets with less than 0.3-dB penalty. Then using FWM in a HNLF and also a programmable planar lightwave circuit (PLC) we propose and experimentally demonstrate the all-optical reconfigurable time slot interchange (TSI) of individual bits at 40 Gb/s. The PLC is used to generate different control signals (masks) that determine which bits undergo TSI. By programming the PLC to generate two different masks, two different TSI patterns are obtained. TSI is achieved using FWM between the data signal and the desired mask with bidirectional propagation in the HNLF. Error-free operation is obtained for both of the TSI patterns, with a power penalty of less than 5.2 dB, at a bit error rate of 10-9.Next, we use a low-stress silicon-rich nitride waveguide as the nonlinear medium to perform two different applications based on XPM. The waveguide is engineered to display flat and low dispersion over the entire C+L bands. First, we demonstrate wavelength conversion of 10 Gb/s signals across the C band and obtain error free operation. We also demonstrate ultra broadband wavelength conversion over 300 nm from the O-band to the L-band. Second, we highlight the use of SixNy waveguides for nonlinear MWP. We report the first demonstration of an XPM-based radio-frequency (RF) spectrum analyzer of optical signals using an integrated silicon nitride waveguide. Measurements show a bandwidth of at least 560 GHz for our RF-spectrum analyzer. RF-spectra measurements for pulse trains at rates from ~ 10 GHz to ~ 160 GHz are demonstrated. These results show that the silicon nitride technology has a competitive performance for realizing high-speed optical processing of telecom signals." --

Download or read book Ultrafast Nonlinear Optics written by Robert Thomson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of ultrafast nonlinear optics is broad and multidisciplinary, and encompasses areas concerned with both the generation and measurement of ultrashort pulses of light, as well as those concerned with the applications of such pulses. Ultrashort pulses are extreme events – both in terms of their durations, and also the high peak powers which their short durations can facilitate. These extreme properties make them powerful experiment tools. On one hand, their ultrashort durations facilitate the probing and manipulation of matter on incredibly short timescales. On the other, their ultrashort durations can facilitate high peak powers which can drive highly nonlinear light-matter interaction processes. Ultrafast Nonlinear Optics covers a complete range of topics, both applied and fundamental in nature, within the area of ultrafast nonlinear optics. Chapters 1 to 4 are concerned with the generation and measurement of ultrashort pulses. Chapters 5 to 7 are concerned with fundamental applications of ultrashort pulses in metrology and quantum control. Chapters 8 and 9 are concerned with ultrafast nonlinear optics in optical fibres. Chapters 10 to 13 are concerned with the applications of ultrashort pulses in areas such as particle acceleration, microscopy, and micromachining. The chapters are aimed at graduate-student level and are intended to provide the student with an accessible, self-contained and comprehensive gateway into each subject.

Book excerpt: Non-linear optics (NLO) is the branch of optics that describes the behaviour of light in non-linear media, that is, media in which the dielectric polarisation P responds nonlinearly to the electric field E of the light. This nonlinearly is typically only observed at very high light intensities such as those provided by pulsed lasers. Non-linear optics is of considerable research interest since it includes: Free space and guided wave non-linear optics; Weak (second and third order etc. effects) and strong (non-perturbative)nonlinearities; Fast (electronic fs timescale)and slow (thermal ms timescale) non-linearities; Novel non-linear materials; Numerical simulation of non-linear optical propagation; Applications of non-linear optics in fields such as signal processing, optical communications, holographic memory and soliton phenomena. This Advanced book provides the latest research from around the globe in this fast-moving field.

Book excerpt: The conference "Nonlinear Optics and Optical Computing" was held May 11-19, 1988 in Erice, Sicily. This was the 13th conference organized by the International School of Quantum Electronics, under the auspices of the "Ettore Majorana" Center for Scientific Culture. This volume contains both the invited and contributed papers presented at the conference, providing tutorial background, the latest research results, and future directions for the devices, structures and architectures of optical computing. The invention of the transistor and the integrated circuit were followed by an explosion of application as ever faster and more complex microelectronics chips became available. The information revolution occa sioned by digital computers and optical communications is now reaching the limits of silicon semiconductor technology, but the demand for faster com putation is still accelerating. The fundamental limitations of information processing today derive from the performance and cost of three technical factors: speed, density, and software. Optical computation offers the potential for improvements in all three of these critical areas: Speed is provided by the transmission of impulses at optical veloc ities, without the delays caused by parasitic capacitance in the case of conventional electrical interconnects. Speed can also be achieved through the massive parallelism characteristic of many optical computing architec tures; Density can be provided in optical computers in two ways: by high spatial resolution, on the order of wavelengths of light, and by computa tion or interconnection in three dimensions.
