In this paper, we present recent research on silicon nanowires for ultra-fast and ultra-broadband optical signal processing at DTU Fotonik. The advantages and limitations of using silicon nanowires for optical signal processing are revealed through experimental demonstrations of various optical signal processing.
We have generated a phase-correlated 160 GBaud NRZ-like DPSK signal based on XPM in a HNLF. The generated 160 GBaud DPSK signal is Nyquist filtered with minimized ISI and error-free performance is achieved.
We experimentally demonstrate self-phase modulation based all-optical regeneration of a 40 Gbit/s serial data signal in a silicon nanowire. Bit error rate characterization shows 2 dB receiver power improvement.
All-optical 2R regeneration of a 160-Gbit/s RZ-OOK signal is demonstrated in a fiber optical parametric amplifier using a highly nonlinear fiber with the data as pump. Bit error rate bathtub curves validate the regeneration performance.
We have demonstrated 160 Gb/s all-optical data modulation with an extinction ratio of 18.5 dB based on XPM in a silicon nanowire. Error free performance is achieved for the optically modulated 160 Gb/s signal.
We propose DWDM-OTDM conversion by time-domain optical Fourier transformation. Error-free conversion of a 16×10 Gbit/s 50 GHz-spacing DWDM data signal to a 160 Gbit/s OTDM signal with a 2.1 dB average penalty is demonstrated.
We report on recent results on Terabit per second single channel systems using a record high 1.28 Tbit/s OTDM data rate. We discuss demultiplexing and optical sampling in several different materials as well as transmission.
