Tunable fiber Bragg grating filters realized by chirp rate tuning with a cantilever beam

An efficient scheme to change the chirp rate of a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) has been developed based on a specially-designed cantilever beam with the beam-bending method. It allows, to date, the largest tuning range of 36 nm in reflection bandwidth of a chirped-FBG (CFBG) while keeping the center wavelength nearly fixed during the tuning process. Using this method, bandwidth-tunable fiber grating filters with tunable chromatic dispersion or differential group delay have been demonstrated. Channel spacing-tunable multi-wavelength filters based on both sampled- and superimposed-CFBGs have also been realized. Moreover, tuning of the bandwidth and channel spacing is continuous with this scheme that makes the achieved devices more flexible.     

Tunable Optical Delay Using Four-Wave Mixing in a 35-cm Highly Nonlinear Bismuth-Oxide Fiber and Group Velocity Dispersion

In this paper, an optically controlled tunable delay scheme has been proposed using four-wave mixing (FWM) wavelength conversion in a 35-cm highly nonlinear bismuth-oxide fiber (Bi-NLF) together with group velocity dispersion (GVD) in a chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG). The Bi-NLF offers a very large nonlinearity and gives rise to significant FWM over a short fiber segment. With the use of a CFBG, a delay range over 185 ps has been experimentally demonstrated. To investigate the performance of the tunable delay, we have applied the scheme for variable delays of 10-Gb/s amplitude-shift keying (ASK) and differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) data signals. The bit error rate (BER) measurements show a power penalty of less than 3.5 dB for both amplitude- and phase-modulated data formats. To further increase the delay time, the CFBG has been replaced by a dispersion compensated fiber (DCF) that provides a wider bandwidth of operation. A variable delay up to 840 ps has been obtained using dual-pump FWM that offers a conversion bandwidth of about 40 nm. The large conversion range helps to minimize GVD-induced pulse distortion as a shorter DCF can be used for a given delay. The Bi-NLF provides an enhanced stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) threshold, a reduced latency, and an increased compactness of the approach for practical applications.

Dispersion compensation of fiber Bragg gratings in 3100 km high speed optical fiber transmission system

By optimizing the fabrication process of the chirped optical fiber Bragg grating (CFBG), some key problems of CFBG are solved, such as fabrication repetition, temperature stability, group delay ripple (GDR), fluctuation of the reflection spectrum, polarization mode dispersion (PMD), interaction of cascaded CFBG, and so on. The CFBG we fabricated can attain a temperature coefficient less than 0.0005 nm/℃, and the smoothed GDR and the fluctuation of the reflection spectrum are smaller than 10ps and 0.5dB, respec-tively. The PMD of each CFBG is less than 1 ps and the dispersion of each grating is larger than -2600 ps/(nm·km). With dispersion compensated by the CFBGs we fabricated, a 13×10 Gbit/s 3100 km ultra long G.652 fiber transmission system is successfully imple-mented without electric regenerator. The bit error rate (BER) of the system is below 10-4 without forward error correction (FEC); when FEC is added, the BER is below 10-12. The power penalty of the carrier-suppressed return-to-zero (CSRZ) code transmission system is only 2.5 dB.     

Gain flattened distributed fiber raman amplifiers

The gain of single-wave pumped S band and C band can reach 10 dB and 15 dB respectively. And a 50 nmgain flattened width was successfully obtained by using a chirp fiber Bragg grating (CFBG) gain flattened filter with gainripple of ±0.6 dB. The C band DFRA has been applied to CDMA wireless communication system successfully.     

2500 km-10 Gbps RZ transmission system based on dispersion compensation CFBGs without electric regenerator

The characteristics of chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBGs) are optimized so that the ripple coefficient of the power reflectivity spectrum and group time delay are less than 1 dB and |± 15| ps, group delay is about 2600 ps/nm, polarization module dispersion is very small, PMD<2 ps, -3 dB bandwidth is about 0.35 nm, and insertion loss is about 4-5 dBm. Using dispersion compensation CFBG, a 2500 km-10 Gbps RZ optical signal transmission system on G.652 fiber was successfully demonstrated without an electric regenerator by optimizing dispersion management and loss management. The RZ optical signal was generated through a two-stage modulation method. At 2081 km, the power penalty of transmission is about 3 dB (conditions: RZ signal, BER = 10-12, PRBS = 1023 - 1); At 2560 km, the power penalty is about 5 dB. It is superior to the system using NRZ under the same conditions.
