The AWG-filtering effect was investigated on a bidirectional 100-GHz-channel-spacing WDM-PON link using spectrum-sliced and RSOA-amplified light sources for downstream signals and a wavelength reuse technique for upstream signals. Signal performances of three different filtering AWGs, including Gaussian, trapezoidal, and rectangular types, were compared on link transmission with fiber nonlinear effects. As an extinction ratio of a downstream signal varied, the effect for both directional signals was analyzed and optimized. It was found that there was an optimal pass bandwidth of an AWG for the balance between relative intensity noise decrement and cross phase modulation noise increment as the bandwidth got wider.

In this paper, a low-cost hybrid-integrated tunable laser is realized using a polymer-ring resonator-based add/drop filter reflector and a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier. The add/drop filter reflector, composed of a double-ring resonator with different radii, can have characteristics of selective wavelength reflection and wide wavelength tuning with an aid of vernier effect derived from the radii difference. By hybrid-integrating the reflective semiconductor optical amplifier with the add/drop filter reflector, a tunable laser can be realized through an active alignment method. The hybrid laser exhibited a single mode lasing with side mode suppression ratio of 26 dB and full width half maximum of 0.03 nm. In addition, applying a low current as small as 25 mA onto electrodes over add/drop filter reflector, a wavelength tuning range of 17 nm could be obtained.

We report the characterization of a wavelength-swept laser (WSL) using a polygon-based wavelength scanning filter and two semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). The output intensity and scanning bandwidth of the WSL depend on the position of the two SOAs in the laser cavity and the coupling ratio of the output fiber coupler. The outputs of the WSL are characterized for coupling ratios of 10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, and 90% for the output fiber coupler. In the setup in which the output fiber coupler is located between the two SOAs, high output power and wide scanning bandwidth can be achieved with an optimized configuration. Using the optimized configuration of the WSL, the intensity increases with the coupling ratio. These results can be used to construct an optimized WSL using the polygon-based wavelength scanning filter.

A wavelength tunable all-optical clock recovery using a semiconductor optical amplifier in a fiber ring cavity is proposed and demonstrated at the wavelength of 1530 nm to 1570 nm. A synchronized optical pulse train is recovered from 10 Gbps and 30 Gbps randomly generated optical pulse streams with injection locking technique. Also, the system responses to the perturbation and the input average power variation are analyzed by a large-signal model based on time-domain travelling wave equation. ation.

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a photonic microwave notch filter with a negative coefficient. The negative coefficient is obtained by using cross gain modulation (XGM) in a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA). When the RSOA is operated in saturated region, the signal carried on the pump wavelength is inversely copied to the probe wavelength by the XGM effect, showing a negative coefficient. Time delay between pump signal and probe signal is provided by single mode fiber (SMF) with wavelength dependent time delay. The proposed microwave notch filter shows notch dips of more than 35.1 dB and free spectral range (FSR) of about 380.6 MHz.

차세대 광 인터넷 시스템을 구축하는 데 있어서 패킷을 광신호 상태에서 라우팅하기 위한 전광 교환 방식에 대한 연구가 최근 관심을 끌고 있다. 전광 패킷 라우팅모듈을 구현하는 데 있어서 파장변환 기술은 필수적이며 여러 가지 형태에 대한 연구개발이 진행되고 있다. 최근에는 반도체 광 증폭기로 형성된 방향성 결합기 구조(semiconductor optical amplifier directional coupler)에서의 상호위상변조(XPM ： cross-phase modulation)에 의한 파장변환에 대한 개념이 제안되고 가능성이 실험적으로 입증된 바 있다.
