Abstract

The unique and practical benefits of the use of bismuth-oxide-based nonlinear fiber (Bi-NLF) in implementing a four-wave-mixing (FWM)-based wavelength converter for fiber-optic-communication-system applications are experimentally demonstrated. First, the Kerr-nonlinearity and stimulated-Brillouin-scattering (SBS) characteristics of our fabricated Bi-NLF are experimentally investigated. The Bi-NLF is found to have the superior advantage of a significantly high SBS threshold in addition to its ultrahigh Kerr nonlinearity γ of ∼1100 W-1·km-1, compared to the conventional silica-based highly nonlinear fiber. Next, the authors perform an experiment for the FWM-based wavelength conversion of a non-return-to-zero (NRZ) signal within a 40-cm length of the Bi-NLF fusion spliced to standard silica fibers by using a continuous-wave (CW) high-power pump beam. Error-free tunable wavelength conversion over a 10-nm bandwidth is readily achieved. No SBS-suppression scheme is employed for the pump due to the high SBS threshold, which simplifies the system configuration and improves the quality of the wavelength-converted signal.

Abstract

L-band power amplifiers operating with high efficiency and high linearity at a single and low supply voltage are in strong demand for mobile communication systems. This paper presents a new self-linearizing technique for power heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs). Utilizing the nonlinear input conductance of the device itself and setting the source impedance to the self-linearizing impedance, the phase distortion and the adjacent channel leakage power (ACP) for /spl pi//4-shift QPSK modulated signal of our InGaP/GaAs power HBTs have been greatly improved. As a result, the HBT exhibited the ACP at 50 kHz offset frequency of -49.2 dBc with a power-added efficiency (PAE) of 56% at an output power (P/sub out/) of 31 dBm under a supply voltage of 35 V.

40. Clock recovery and demultiplexing of high-speed OTDM signal through combined use of bismuth oxide nonlinear fiber and erbium-doped bismuth oxide fiber.

Abstract

We explore the ultimate potential offered by state-of-the-art Bismuth oxide-based optical fiber technology in a high-speed optical phase-locked loop-based clock recovery subsystem for an optical time-division multiplexed (OTDM) signal, in which the use of optical fiber-based devices has been considered to be inappropriate due to its tight requirement of short optical loop length. Here, we experimentally demonstrate the implementation of a compact all-fiber-based OTDM receiver incorporating both clock recovery and demultiplexing functions by use of short lengths of Bismuth oxide-based nonlinear fiber and erbium-doped Bismuth oxide fiber. Successful clock recovery and subsequent error-free demultiplexing are readily achieved at a data rate of 80 Gb/s. The clock recovery subsystem is also shown to be operable at 160 Gb/s.
