Abstract

We propose a hybrid optical bistable device based on a fibre Bragg grating. The experimental set-up is designed by using real communication components. The optical bistable characteristics are simulated. The feedback nonlinearity and the delay time of the device are emphasized. We discuss the potential of such a device in sensor applications.

Hybrid Optoelectronic Bistability in Frequency-Domain and Its Potential Application in FBG Sensors

Hongan Ye, Liu Chun-Yu, Guohui Lv +2 more

We propose a novel optical bistable device (OBD) in frequency-domain with which we can perform optical bistable operations in a number of fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) which are included in the same OBD. Such an OBD may bring more opportunities in applications and, as an example, we show the possibility of using it in an FBG sensor demodulating system. By use of a tunable light source, consisting of a broad band source and a scanning fibre F–P (FFP), we demonstrate the above-mentioned operations experimentally.

Photoelectric Hybrid Optical Bistable Device Using Fibre Bragg Gratings with Two Feed Signals

Hongan Ye, Xinming Zhang, Yong Zhu

A photoelectric hybrid optical bistable device (OBD) is investigated by using fibre Bragg gratings as a light-intensity modulator. A new operation with two feed signals is proposed, and with this method the output characteristic of the OBD is remarkably improved. The potential application of such a device in optic stabilizer for fibre laser is also briefly discussed.

Optical Stabilizer Based on Optical Bistable Devices with All-Fibre Construction

Cheng Li, Hongan Ye, Xuezeng Zhao +3 more

We propose a fibre optical stabilizer constituted by a photoelectric-hybrid optical bistable device in which fibre Bragg grating is used as a light intensity modulator. The intensity noise-reducing ability is well improved through the method by employing two feed signals. As a result, the light intensity variation can be reduced to ~1/64.

Optical switching method based on two diffraction gratings bistable system

Piotr A. Kisała, Sławomir Cięszczyk

This paper presents properties of all-optical bistable fibre switch using two fibre Bragg gratings and rare earth elements doped optical fiber. It is not possible to obtain bistable properties at low switching power level in case of a single fibre grating. In this article the method of optical switching that uses all-optical switch has been proposed. It has been achieved by varying the refractive index of nonlinear optical material as a result of light signal amplitude changes. Presented optical bistable device can be used both in contemporary optically switched networks as well as in optoelectronic sensors, owing to their high achievable resolution.

Hybrid Acousto-Optical Bistability in the Second-Order Bragg Regime

Mark D. McNeill, Ting‐Chung Poon

Over the past decade, research with acoustooptic hybrid bistable devices has been primarily concerned with operation in the first Bragg regime involving two to four diffracted orders. In this paper, a model that includes both acoustooptic diffraction and nonlinear feedback will be used to investigate optical bistability in the second Bragg regime. In addition, theoretical simulations will be used to compare this system with an identical system operating in the first Bragg regime. Theoretical and experimental results will be presented.
