Efficient All-Optical Interband Light Modulation by Ultrafast Manipulation of Intersubband Transitions in an Asymmetric Quantum Well*

Arup Neogi, Haruhiko Yoshida, Teruo Mozume +1 more

An efficient modulation scheme at relatively lower control light intensities is proposed using ultrashort interband and intersubband-resonant coupling light pulses in a novel asymmetric In x Ga1-x As/AlAs semiconductor quantum well structure. The shape of the intersubband-control light pulses can manipulate the interband-signal light pulse absorption. The carrier relaxation rate of the quantum well system can be estimated from the interband nonlinear optical parameters induced by the intersubband control light field. The modulation efficiency in the proposed structure is twice than in a conventional symmetric quantum well structure. This reduces the threshold optical energy below 1 pJ in a 100-µm2 waveguide structure on using 500 fs control light pulses owing to the enhanced optical nonlinearities in the proposed structure.

Controlling light with dynamic photonic structures

Shanhui Fan, Zongfu Yu, Clayton R. Otey +1 more

The introduction of dynamics in nanophotonic structures creates new opportunities for controlling light. Here we show that one can use just two dynamically tuned cavities to capture a light pulse. We also introduce the use of dynamic modulation to create complete optical isolation.

Three-dimensional control of the light propagation in a defect photonic crystal

J Bravo A, A P Aslla Q, Yersi-Luis Huamán-Romaní +2 more

Abstract In this paper, we have proposed a new model for controlling the light propagation in a defect photonic crystal structure with a dispersive defect layer. The defect layer consists of a four-level quantum wells interacts by two optical vortex lights. Here, a weak signal light can be generated due to the four-wave mixing mechanism, and this led to phase dependent of the medium. By intensity modulations of the applied lights, we study the 3D properties of the transmitted, reflected and absorption spectrums of the incident light from defect photonic crystal. We have shown that via azimuthal modulations of the optical vortex light the incident light can be absorbed or amplified easily.
