impact of the Modulation Chirp of a demzm on the transmission of signals based on ofdm
IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 2013Co-Authors: Paulo Almeida, Henrique J A Da SilvaAbstract:We investigate the transmission performance of an optical signal composed by a custom orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) gigabit ethernet (GbE) signal, a long-term evolution (LTE) signal, and an OFDM ultrawideband (OFDM-UWB) signal, when Chirp is introduced in the intensity Modulation based on a dual electrode Mach-Zehnder modulator. The results show that, when the optical signal is generated with controlled negative Chirp, it is possible to reduce the optical signal-to-noise (OSNR) penalty after transmission through a long reach fiber-to-the-home network by approximately 5, 1.5, and 0.5 dB, for the OFDM-UWB, LTE, and OFDM-GbE signals, respectively. Furthermore, the results show negative OSNR penalty for OFDM-UWB and LTE signals after transmission, for specific distances.

light controllable fiber interferometer utilizing photoexcitation dynamics in colloidal quantum dot
Optics Express, 2018Co-Authors: Feng Gao, Yang Wang, Zhenhua Feng, Baohui Zhang, Jingyao Liu, Jiang Tang, Ming Tang, Huan Liu, Yinlan Ruan, Heike EbendorffheidepriemAbstract:The development of highly efficient light-controlled functional fiber elements has become indispensable to optical fiber communication systems. Traditional nonlinearity-based optical fiber devices suffer from the demerits of complex/expensive components, high peak power requirements, and poor efficiency. In this study, we utilize colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) to develop a light-controlled optical fiber interferometer (FI) for the all-optical control of the transmission spectrum. A specially designed exposed-core microstructure fiber (ECMF) is utilized to form the functional structure. Two types of PbS CQDs with absorption wavelengths around 1180 nm and 1580 nm, respectively, are deposited on the ECMF to enable the functional FI. The wavelength and power of control light are key factors for tailoring the FI transmission spectrum. A satisfactory recovery property and linear relationship between the spectrum shift and the power of control light at certain wavelength are achieved. The highest wavelength shift sensitivity of our light-controlled FI is 4.6 pm/mW, corresponding to an effective refractive index (RI) change of 5 × 10-6 /mW. We established a theoretical model to reveal that the RI of the CQD layer is governed by photoexcitation dynamics in CQD with the light absorption at certain wavelength. The concentration of charge carriers in the CQD layer can be relatively high under light illumination owing to their small size-related quantum confinement, which implies that low light power (mW-level in this work) can change the refractive index of the CQDs. Meanwhile, the absorption wavelength of quantum dots can be easily tuned via CQD size control to match specific operating wavelength windows. We further apply the CQD-based FI as a light-controllable fiber filter (LCFF) in a 50-km standard single-mode fiber-based communication system with 12.5-Gbps on-off keying direct Modulation. Chirp management and dispersion compensation are successfully achieved by using the developed LCFF to obtain error-free transmission. CQDs possess excellent solution processability, and they can be deposited uniformly and conformally on various substrates such as fibers, silicon chips, and other complex structure surfaces, offering a powerful new degree of freedom to develop light control devices for optical communication.
