In this work, we study the physical layer solutions for 10-gigabit-capable passive optical networks (PONs), particularly for an optical link terminal (OLT) including a 10-Gbit/s electroabsorption modulated laser (EML) and a 2.5-Gbit/s burst mode receiver (BM-Rx) in a novel bidirectional optical subassembly (BOSA). As unique features, a bidirectional mini-flat package and a 9-pin TO package are developed for a 10-gigabit-capable PON OLT BOSA composed of a 1,577-nm EML and a 1,270-nm avalanche photodiode BM-Rx, including a single-chip burst mode integrated circuit that is integrated with a transimpedance and limiting amplifier. In the developed prototype, the 10-Gbit/s transmitter and 2.5-Gbit/s receiver characteristics are evaluated and compared with the physical media dependent (PMD) specifications in ITU-T G.987.2 for XG-PON1. By conducting the 10-Gbit/s downstream and 2.5-Gbit/s upstream transmission experiments, we verify that the developed 10-gigabitcapable PON PMD prototype can operate for extended network coverage of up to a 40-km fiber reach.

In this paper, a variable optical signal delay line based on coupled ring resonators is designed and fabricated in high-index contrast polymer material. The free spectral ranges (FSR) of the rings are designed to be 100 GHz, and 8 coupled rings are used. When two rings near a bus waveguide are in resonance, the optical delay is measured to be about 100 ps. When four rings are in resonance, the measured delay is about 180 ps. Both are close to the theoretical calculations.

We report on the visible photoluminescence of the Tb/Yb co-doped alumino-germano-silicate fibers for visible fiber laser application. By changing the concentration ratios of $Tb^{3+}$ to $Yb^{3+}$, we optimized the solution doping conditions and obtained the highest emission efficiency at 546nm. The luminescence intensity at 546nm was found to increase with the relative increase of $Tb^{3+}$ ions.

It is reported that the spectral loss of photonic crystal fiber (PCF) having a large hole-to-hole distance (~ 10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) is sensitive to micro- and macrobending when compared with the conventional single-mode fiber. In this paper, we will present the measurement result of the macro- and microbending characteristics of fabricated PCF with large hole-to-hole distance (> 10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) . For the macrobending experiment, the fiber was simply wound around a circular structure with variable diameter that could be reduced to a few centimeters. For the microbending case, regularly spaced silica rods were attached on a slide glass and pressed against the fiber by loading a stack of metal plates of known weight on the glass. The transmission loss spectrum shows a rather flat response to the to microbending, and this makes the PCF a good candidate for a wideband variable optical attenuator.

We have developed an finite-difference time-domain program that can analyze photonic devices with gain and/or dispersion. As an example, a two-dimensional photonic-crystal laser is simulated. The simulation can show the relaxation oscillation behavior at extremely high current injection.

We present an ultrahigh-resolution full-field optical coherence tomography (FF-OCT) implemented with a white-light interference microscope and a detector array as an alternative OCT technique. The use of detector array allows the capture of two-dimensional en-face images in parallel without taking any lateral scanning process. The phase shifting interferometric technique with the sinusoidal phase modulation (SPM) is utilized to get the demodulated OCT images. The configuration of the system and the resolution of the obtained image are presented. The topographic images, taken with the implemented system, of a coin, an integrated circuit chip, and the tomographic images of an onion epithelium are demonstrated also. Axial and lateral spatial resolution of ${\sim}1.0{\mu}m$ and ${\sim}2.0{\mu}m$ are achieved with the system respectively.
