Efficient Symmetry-Tunable Triangular-Shaped Waveforms Generation via Time-Domain Synthesis
A high-efficiency triangular-shaped waveforms generator is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. Assisted by an optical-optical modulation in a semiconductor optical amplifier under a high bias current, a sinusoidal envelope is transformed into a dark parabolic waveform. This dark parabolic waveform and a delayed bright parabolic waveform are overlapped in a balanced photodetector, yielding two linear functions with slopes of opposite signs, which are jointed together to form the target waveforms. Theoretical analysis and simulations are given in detail. In the experiment, by simply adjusting the delay, triangular-shaped waveforms with tunable symmetry factor ranging from 20% to 80% are successfully generated, showing a good agreement with the theoretical expectations. Compared to the previous schemes based on the harmonics synthesis, this time-domain approach greatly reduces the technical requirement while the flexibility and accuracy is improved.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Photonics Technology Letters addresses all aspects of the IEEE Photonics Society Constitutional Field of Interest with emphasis on photonic/lightwave components and applications, laser physics and systems and laser/electro-optics technology. Examples of subject areas for the above areas of concentration are integrated optic and optoelectronic devices, high-power laser arrays (e.g. diode, CO2), free electron lasers, solid, state lasers, laser materials'' interactions and femtosecond laser techniques. The letters journal publishes engineering, applied physics and physics oriented papers. Emphasis is on rapid publication of timely manuscripts. A goal is to provide a focal point of quality engineering-oriented papers in the electro-optics field not found in other rapid-publication journals.
