Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This invaluable look provides a comprehensive treatment of design and applications of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA). SOA is an important component for optical communication systems. It has applications as in-line amplifiers and as functional devices in evolving optical networks. The functional applications of SOAs were first studied in the early 1990''s, since then the diversity and scope of such applications have been steadily growing.

Book Four Wave Mixing in Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers and Erbium Doped Fiber Lasers

Download or read book Four Wave Mixing in Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers and Erbium Doped Fiber Lasers written by Chiming Wu and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four Wave Mixing (FWM) in a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) is a third order nonlinear effect, which has various potential applications in high-speed optical communication systems. Continuous-wave (CW) FWM in a 2-section SOA has been experimentally studied. The carrier density modulation and nonlinear gain effects in the semiconductor optical amplifier contribute to the generation of the FWM. A theoretical model of CW FWM and frequency response of FWM using small signal analysis has been developed. Bandwidth of the FWM has been obtained for the first time. Pulsed FWM in the 2-section SOA has also been studied and analyzed. Optical time-division demultiplexing and wavelength conversion using the FWM in the SOA has been demonstrated for optical communication. A tunable Erbium doped fiber laser, which is preferred in the FWM experiments and is potentially an important source for high speed optical communication, has also been investigated. The tunability of the fiber laser is about 40 nm for both CW and mode-locking cases. Actively harmonic mode-locking which happens when the modulation frequency fm = n fc (fc is the fundamental cavity frequency) and rational harmonic mode-locking which happens when fm = (n + 1/p)fc (n, p are both integers) have been studied and analyzed. 22nd order of rational harmonic mode-locking was observed when f m 1 GHz, which is the highest order of rational harmonic mode-locking ever reported. 40 GHz pulse train with pulse width âˆ1⁄47 ps was achieved using rational harmonic mode-locking technique when f m 10 GHz. Stabilization of the mode-locked Er-doped fiber laser with a semiconductor optical amplifier in the cavity has also been studied. The semiconductor optical amplifier contributes in removing the supermode noise and stabilizing the optical pulses.

Book Advances in Optical Amplifiers

Download or read book Advances in Optical Amplifiers written by Paul Urquhart and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2011-02-14 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optical amplifiers play a central role in all categories of fibre communications systems and networks. By compensating for the losses exerted by the transmission medium and the components through which the signals pass, they reduce the need for expensive and slow optical-electrical-optical conversion. The photonic gain media, which are normally based on glass- or semiconductor-based waveguides, can amplify many high speed wavelength division multiplexed channels simultaneously. Recent research has also concentrated on wavelength conversion, switching, demultiplexing in the time domain and other enhanced functions. Advances in Optical Amplifiers presents up to date results on amplifier performance, along with explanations of their relevance, from leading researchers in the field. Its chapters cover amplifiers based on rare earth doped fibres and waveguides, stimulated Raman scattering, nonlinear parametric processes and semiconductor media. Wavelength conversion and other enhanced signal processing functions are also considered in depth. This book is targeted at research, development and design engineers from teams in manufacturing industry, academia and telecommunications service operators.

Book Quantum Dot Based Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers for O Band Optical Communication

Download or read book Quantum Dot Based Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers for O Band Optical Communication written by Holger Schmeckebier and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the unique properties of gallium arsenide (GaAs)-based quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifiers for optical communication networks, introducing readers to their fundamentals, basic parameters and manifold applications. The static and dynamic properties of these amplifiers are discussed extensively in comparison to conventional, non quantum-dot based amplifiers, and their unique advantages are elaborated on, such as the fast carrier dynamics and the decoupling of gain and phase dynamics. In addition to diverse amplification scenarios involving single and multiple high symbol rate amplitude and phase-coded data signals, wide-range wavelength conversion as a key functionality for optical signal processing is investigated and discussed in detail. Furthermore, two novel device concepts are developed and demonstrated that have the potential to significantly simplify network architectures, reducing the investment and maintenance costs as well as the energy consumption of future networks.

Book Photonic Devices for Telecommunications

Download or read book Photonic Devices for Telecommunications written by George Guekos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is subdivided into three main Parts. The common spirit in these parts is to provide, at the beginning of each, a comprehensive introduction into the subject treated, followed by specific aspects pertaining to the modelling and/or measuring particularities arlsmg from the investigation of photonic devices for telecommunications. Some of the devices treated here can be considered as widely known and well established. Others are rather new and their potential for applications is not yet fully exploited. The methods to model and measure photonic in this book and the comparison of results obtained devices and structures outlined by applying such methods are likely to interest both the engineer investigating the of a device in a system and the engineer looking for new ways to explore behaviour the possibilities offered by emerging devices. Many authors have contributed to this book. There are two main reasons for this. in photonic device research, modelling First, the book addresses two broad fields and measurements, for which a vast knowledge exists in many research groups that was not integrated in a book before. Second, a significant number of laboratories decided to closely co-operate in order to gain additional information on merits and drawbacks of their own methods for simulation and experimentation of devices as compared to the methods used by their colleagues in other laboratories. The outcome are new aspects and approaches that would not have been investigated in the absence of a framework for a co-operative programme.
