    Optical Time–Frequency Packing: Principles, Design, Implementation, and Experimental Demonstration (2015)
    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-11
    Description: Time–frequency packing (TFP) transmission provides the highest achievable spectral efficiency with a constrained symbol alphabet and detector complexity. In this paper, the application of the TFP technique to fiber-optic systems is investigated and experimentally demonstrated. The main theoretical aspects, design guidelines, and implementation issues are discussed, focusing on those aspects which are peculiar to TFP systems. In particular, adaptive compensation of propagation impairments, matched filtering, and maximum a posteriori probability detection are obtained by a combination of a two-dimensional equalizer and four eight-state parallel Bahl–Cocke–Jelinek–Raviv (BCJR) detectors. A novel algorithm that ensures adaptive equalization, channel estimation, and a proper distribution of tasks between the equalizer and BCJR detectors is proposed. A set of irregular low-density parity-check codes with different rates is designed to operate at low error rates and approach the spectral efficiency limit achievable by TFP at different signal-to-noise ratios. An experimental demonstration of the designed system is finally provided with five dual-polarization QPSK-modulated optical carriers, densely packed in a 100-GHz bandwidth, employing a recirculating loop to test the performance of the system at different transmission distances.

    Femtosecond Soliton Pulse Generation Using Evanescent Field Interaction Through Tungsten Disulfide (WS 2 ) Film (2015)
    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-11
    Description: We investigated nonlinear optical characteristics of Tungsten disulfide (WS 2 ) films and experimentally demonstrated their high potential for application as nonlinear saturable absorbers in passively mode-locked fiber lasers. Side polished fiber (SPF) was fabricated and WS 2 film was overlaid to provide an efficient evanescent field interaction. The WS 2 film was prepared using two methods: liquid phase exfoliation to form few-layer nano-sheets, and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) to grow uniform multilayer WS 2 on a SiO 2 substrate. Two SPF saturable absorbers were prepared by either spin coating WS 2 solution or lifting off the multilayer CVD WS 2 on SPF. An all-fiber ring cavity was built and the WS 2 film overlaid on SPF was employed as a mode locker along with Er-doped fiber as a gain medium. Using the spin-coated WS 2 SPF, stable soliton-like pulses were generated with a spectral width of 5.6 nm and 467 fs pulse duration. The fiber laser cavity containing CVD WS2 SPF generated a transform-limited soliton pulse train with a spectral width of 8.23 nm and a pulse duration of 332 fs. Our study confirmed a high potential of WS 2 film as a novel 2-D nonlinear optical material for laser applications.

    On-Chip Tunable Second-Order Differential-Equation Solver Based on a Silicon Photonic Mode-Split Microresonator (2015)
    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-11
    Description: We propose and experimentally demonstrate an on-chip all-optical differential-equation solver capable of solving second-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) characterizing continuous-time linear time-invariant systems. The photonic device is implemented by a self-coupled microresonator on a silicon-on-insulator platform with mutual coupling between the cavity modes. Owing to the mutual mode coupling within the same resonant cavity, the resonance wavelengths induced by different cavity modes are self-aligned, thus avoiding precise wavelength alignment and unequal thermal wavelength drifts as in the case of cascaded resonators. By changing the mutual mode coupling strength, the proposed device can be used to solve second-order ODEs with tunable coefficients. System demonstration using the fabricated device is carried out for 10-Gb/s optical Gaussian and super-Gaussian input pulses. The experimental results are in good agreement with theoretical predictions of the solutions, which verify the feasibility of the fabricated device as a tunable second-order photonic ODE solver.

    Integrated Gain Switched Comb Source for 100 Gb/s WDM-SSB-DD-OFDM System (2015)
    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-11
    Description: We demonstrate a 100 Gb/s short reach system using a multicarrier transmitter based on a gain switched monolithically integrated laser. An optical comb source with 12.5-GHz free spectral range is achieved by gain-switching an integrated passive feedback laser. The 100 Gb/s wavelength division multiplexed, single sideband, direct detection, orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (WDM-SSB-DD-OFDM) system operates over 25 km standard single mode fiber exhibiting a spectral efficiency of 1.8 b/s/Hz. Receiver sensitivity of –14.2 dBm is achieved after 25 km transmission. Performance optimization with phase and amplitude precompensation is employed to improve the SSB OFDM modulation thereby reducing the interchannel interference and overcoming the power fading induced by the optical filter. We also present a theoretical analysis of the SSB-OFDM modulation.

    Narrow-Linewidth Multi-Wavelength Random Distributed Feedback Laser (2015)
    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-11
    Description: In this paper, narrow-band emission lines are generated by means of two random distributed feedback fiber laser schemes. Spectral line-widths as narrow as 3.2 pm have been measured, which significantly improves previous reported results. The laser is analyzed with the aim of obtaining a spectral line-width as narrow as possible. Additionally a variation of this setup for multi-wavelength operation is also validated. Both schemes present a simple topology that use a combination of phase-shifted fiber Bragg gratings and regular fiber Bragg gratings as filtering elements.

    Description: We report on the fabrication and characterization of 19-cell hypocycloid-shape Kagome fibers with core size larger than 100 μm. These inhibited coupling fibers present low propagation loss (100 dB/km) over broad transmission range with low chromatic dispersion combined with ultra-low power overlap with silica surround, making them an efficient solution for ultra-high power laser handling, ultra-fast laser delivery, and plasma photonics applications.

    Bootstrapping Iterative Demodulation and Decoding Without Pilot Symbols (2015)
    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-11
    Description: The iterative demodulation and decoding algorithm introduced in 2005 by Colavolpe, Barbieri, and Caire to cope with channels affected by phase noise needs pilot symbols to bootstrap. However, pilot symbols reduce the spectral efficiency of the system and, consequently, system's throughput. The aim of this paper is to show that trellis-based demodulation can be used to bootstrap the iterative process without the need of pilot symbols. Also, the complexity issue of trellis-based demodulation is addressed in this paper. The result is that the performance of iterative demodulation and decoding after the iterations is virtually unaffected by complexity reduction, provided that the reduced-complexity demodulator guarantees cycle-slip-free operation. From the numerical results presented in this paper, we show that cycle-slip-free operation can be achieved with substantial complexity reduction also for phase noise associated with linewidths of practical interest.

    Highly Nonlinear Dispersion Increasing Fiber for Femtosecond Pulse Generation (2015)
    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-11
    Description: The optical pulse evolution in a highly nonlinear normal dispersion-increasing fiber has been considered, both experimentally and theoretically. It was found that large spectral broadening in tapered waveguides could occur without temporal instabilities and impose the linear frequency modulation, i.e., chirp, required for high-quality pulse compression. The pedestal-free pulses have been demonstrated after dechirping in a standard single-mode fiber.

    High-Sensitivity Biochemical Sensor Based on Cylindrical Nano-Metal Particles Array (2015)
    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-11
    Description: This work proposes a novel localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) biochemical sensor featuring high sensitivity and a high resolution. The sensor was divided into two subcomponents according to their distinct functions; namely, single-mode fiber and metal array. Single-mode fibers located on the left and right sides of the sensors function as the input and output for optical fiber signals. A metal array comprising an arrangement of cylindrical nanometal particles served as the detection area of the sensor. To effectively reduce the memory capacity and calculation time, two innovative techniques (i.e., object meshing and boundary meshing) were integrated with the finite element method. With the area of the triangular elements used as a basis, the object boundary, small object, medium object, and large objects were meshed at a ratio of 1:8:160:1600. The improved numerical simulation methods and six design procedures were adopted to develop and analyze the proposed LSPR biochemical sensor. The results show that the novel LSPR biochemical sensor outperformed two current high-performance biochemical sensors and provided additional advantages such as short length (approximately 430 μm), high resolution (approximately –120 dB), and high sensitivity (approximately 127 604 nm/RIU).

    Ultra-Broadband Super Light Absorber Based on Multi-Sized Tapered Hyperbolic Metamaterial Waveguide Arrays (2015)
    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-11
    Description: We propose an ultra-broadband super light absorber by integrating different-sized tapered hyperbolic metamaterial (HMM) waveguides, each of which has a different and wide absorption band due to broadband slow-light response, into a unit cell. We numerically demonstrate that such an absorber is superior to a single-sized HMM absorber in terms of absorption bandwidth, while maintaining a comparable absorption efficiency. A three different-sized HMM absorber presents the capability of working with an ultra-wide frequency band ranging from 1 to 30 THz, which is much larger than previously proposed absorbers working in the same spectral region. Such a design shows great promise for a broad range of applications such as thermal emitters, photovoltaics, optical-chemical energy harvesting, and stealth technology, where ultra-wideband absorption is in very high demand.
