Photonic integrated multiwavelength laser arrays: Recent progress and perspectives
摘要: With the significant technology advancement in photonic integration and the demands of compact light sources of multiple wavelengths, multiwavelength laser arrays (MWLAs) can play important roles in high-capacity optical signal transmission, photonic switching, and optical sensing. Manufacturing with semiconductor foundries and the integration with electronic integrated circuits bring not only advanced technologies but also new concepts for realizing MWLAs. This paper will first overview the existing technology development and then discuss the challenges and possible solutions for enabling photonic-integrated MWLAs. The overview will cover monolithically and hybrid-integrated MWLAs. The wavelength registration for both in-plane and vertical-cavity MWLAs will be discussed and compared.

Multiwavelength Fiber Laser Using Erbium-doped Twin-core Fiber and Nonlinear Optical Loop Mirror
摘要: A multiwavelength ?ber laser based on erbium-doped twin-core ?ber (ED-TCF) and nonlinear optical loop mirror (NOLM) is proposed and demonstrated in this paper. The ED-TCF is employed as comb ?lter and gain medium simultaneously. The NOLM serves as an intensity equalizer. A ?ber laser with 8 wavelength outputs is achieved at room temperature. The optical signal to noise ratio (OSNR) is larger than 40 dB. The ?uctuation of peak power and wavelength is less than 1 dB and within 0.015 nm, respectively. This ?ber laser has the advantages of simple structure and stable operation.

Ni-NPs doped PVA: An efficient saturable absorber for generation multiwavelength Q-switched fiber laser system near 1.5?μm
摘要: We report on the use of Nickel nanoparticles (Ni-NPs) as saturable absorber (SA) to generate Q-switched fiber laser pulses in C-band. The Ni-NPs were incorporated in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to produce thin film-based saturable absorber (SA) and integrated into an erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) ring cavity to generate passively Q-switching. The Ni-doped PVA SA reveals modulation depth of 15% and a saturation intensity of 200 MW/cm2. Lasing in CW region begins at 77 mW pump power, whereas stable self-starting Q-switching with a central wavelength of 1563.1 nm begins at 85 mW. By fine adjustment of the laser diode pump power up to 236.4 mW dual-, and triple- lasing lines have been observed at 1563.1, 1563.3 and 1563.4 with side mode suppression ratio (SMSR) of more than 49 dB. The proposed laser is useful for generating pulse laser with a minimum pulse width of 1.5 μs and a maximum repetition rate of 56.79 kHz with a pulse energy of about 4.33 nJ at the maximum pump power of 275 mW. The stability of the pulse is verified from the radio-frequency (RF) spectrum with a measured signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 44 dB. The ability of Ni-PVA as an effective SA may lead to further development of pulsed fiber laser in the field of photonics.
