Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro-ring resonators (MRRs) are employed to generate signals used for optical communication applications, where they can be integrated in a single system. These structures are ideal candidates for very large-scale integrated (VLSI) photonic circuits, since they provide a wide range of optical signal processing functions while being ultra-compact. Soliton pulses have sufficient stability for preservation of their shape and velocity. Technological progress in fields such as tunable narrow band laser systems, multiple transmission, and MRR systems constitute a base for the development of new transmission techniques. Controlling the speed of a light signal has many potential applications in fiber optic communication and quantum computing. The slow light effect has many important applications and is a key technology for all optical networks such as optical signal processing. Generation of slow light in MRRs is based on the nonlinear optical fibers. Slow light can be generated within the micro-ring devices, which will be able to be used with the mobile telephone. Therefore, the message can be kept encrypted via quantum cryptography. Thus perfect security in a mobile telephone network is plausible. This research study involves both numerical experiments and theoretical work based on MRRs for secured communication.
Download or read book Ring Resonator Systems to Perform Optical Communication Enhancement Using Soliton written by Iraj Sadegh Amiri and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-08-27 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title explain new technique of secured and high capacity optical communication signals generation by using the micro and nano ring resonators. The pulses are known as soliton pulses which are more secured due to having the properties of chaotic and dark soliton signals with ultra short bandwidth. They have high capacity due to the fact that ring resonators are able to generate pulses in the form of solitons in multiples and train form. These pulses generated by ring resonators are suitable in optical communication due to use the compact and integrated rings system, easy to control, flexibility, less loss, application in long distance communication and many other advantages. Using these pulses overcome the problems such as losses during the propagation, long distances, error detection, using many repeaters or amplifiers, undetectable received signals, pulse broadening, overlapping and so on. This book show how to generate soliton pulses using ring resonators in the micro and nano range which can be used in optical communication to improve the transmission technique and quality of received signals in networks such as WiFi and wireless communication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated ring resonators have attracted a considerable interest in optical communications because of their small size and wide range of applicability. Here we consider several aspects of these devices, beginning with a tunable hybrid ring resonators consisting of a silicon over insulator (SOI) ring covered with a polymer layer in a variable electric field. Varying the field changes the polymer refractive index and consequently the resonance condition of the cavity. This device offers a large degree of optical confinement together with a high modulation speed. Subsequently, we design and present fabrication results for a Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) multiplexer/demultiplexer formed from a series of ring resonators with two channels separated by 50 GHz each that is predicted to exhibit a free spectral range (FSR) of 100 GHz, signal dispersion less than 30 ps/nm and a signal cross-talk less than -23 dB. Finally, we analyze the application of the coupled ring waveguide circuit to rotation sensors based on the Sagnac phase shift. Here, however our analysis indicates that a single ring, of the same area exhibits a higher degree of sensitivity to rotational motion than a multiple ring circuit.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As modern electronic devices continue to miniaturize and integrate more functionality, silicon-based MEMS timing references are gaining more and more attention and are replacing quartz crystals in the $5 billion market. They offer a lot of advantages such as a small foot-print, low cost, low power consumption, etc. However, the performance (phase noise in particular) of MEMS-based timing references still needs improvement to outperform the well-established quartz crystals. This work presents a fully-differential breathe-mode ring resonators with a quality factor as high as 473,000 at 10MHz by minimizing air damping, anchor loss and thermo-elastic dissipation. This quality factor approaches the theoretical maximum quality factor set by the phonon-to-phonon scattering in the material. It is among the highest reported in literature. MEMS oscillators based on this breathe-mode ring resonator produce a -120dBc/Hz close-to-carrier (@1kHz offset) phase noise performance. In addition, ultra-narrow bandwidth breathe-mode ring filters are designed and fabricated based on this high Q breathe-mode ring resonator using mechanical coupling, achieving less than 0.05% bandwidth. However, due to the large transduction gap size (1.5μm) dictated by the "epi-seal" fabrication process, the motional impedance of the breathe-mode ring resonator is relatively high, causing poor oscillator phase noise performance. In this work, a modified "epi-seal" fabrication process employing surface micromachining combined with bulk micro-machining is performed, achieving a transduction gap size as small as 260nm, thereby reducing the motional impedance by six times and improving the phase noise performance by 15dB theoretically. In the last section, integrated CMOS-MEMS structures, including 10 and 25 MHz breathe-mode ring resonators and 850 kHz double ended tuning fork resonators integrated with CMOS trans-impedance amplifiers (TIAs), are designed and fabricated in the InvenSense Nasiri fabrication platform. This platform offers a great way to help bring good concepts to quick realization by opening the commercially proven MEMS fabrication platform to the public.

Download or read book High Frequency Pound Drever Hall Optical Ring Resonator Sensing written by James Paul Chambers and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A procedure is introduced for increasing the sensitivity of measurements in integrated ring resonators beyond what has been previously accomplished. This is demonstrated by a high-frequency, phase sensitive lock to the ring resonators. A prototyped fiber Fabry-Perot cavity is used for comparison of the method to a similar cavity. The Pound-Drever-Hall (PDH) method is used as a proven, ultra-sensitive method with the exploration of a much higher frequency modulation than has been previously discussed to overcome comparatively low finesse of the ring resonator cavities. The high frequency facilitates the use of the same modulation signal to separately probe the phase information of different integrated ring resonators with quality factors of 8.2 x10^5 and 2.4 x10^5. The large free spectral range of small cavities and low finesse provides a challenge to sensing and locking the long-term stability of diode lasers due to small dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratios. These can be accommodated for by a calculated increase in modulation frequency using the PDH approach. Further, cavity design parameters will be shown to have a significant affect on the resolution of the phase-sensing approach. A distributed feedback laser is locked to a ring resonator to demonstrate the present sensitivity which can then be discussed in comparison to other fiber and integrated sensors. The relationship of the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) and frequency range to the cavity error signal will be explored with an algorithm to optimize this relationship. The free spectral range and the cavity transfer function coefficients provide input parameters to this relationship to determine the optimum S/N and frequency range of the respective cavities used for locking and sensing. The purpose is to show how future contributions to the measurements and experiments of micro-cavities, specifically ring resonators, is well-served by the PDH method with high-frequency modulation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This course-based primer provides newcomers to the field with a concise introduction to some of the core topics in the emerging field of topological insulators. The aim is to provide a basic understanding of edge states, bulk topological invariants, and of the bulk--boundary correspondence with as simple mathematical tools as possible. The present approach uses noninteracting lattice models of topological insulators, building gradually on these to arrive from the simplest one-dimensional case (the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model for polyacetylene) to two-dimensional time-reversal invariant topological insulators (the Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang model for HgTe). In each case the discussion of simple toy models is followed by the formulation of the general arguments regarding topological insulators. The only prerequisite for the reader is a working knowledge in quantum mechanics, the relevant solid state physics background is provided as part of this self-contained text, which is complemented by end-of-chapter problems.
