Abstract

We take advantage of suitable properties of nonlinear optical devices such as synchronized nonlinear fiber ring resonator and the effects of birefringence in optical fibers to construct a setup, using only optical fibers, for quantum communications. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

We use the dynamical behavior of a nonlinear fiber ring resonator and the switching capability of a nonlinear fiber coupler to produce a sequence of pulses, with polarization states changing pseudorandomly between two values, to be used as a key in quantum cryptography. The experimental setup is proposed, and simulations are performed. ©2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 24: 79–81, 2000.

Cochannel interference cancellation via employing a reference correlator for synchronous optical CDMA systems

Maw-Yang Liu, Hen‐Wai Tsao

Interference cancellation using a reference correlator for synchronous optical CDMA systems is investigated. We employ a padded modified prime sequence to achieve a “unique” cross-correlation value of “1” among all signature sequences. This scheme requires only one reference correlator to effectively suppress the interfering signals. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 25: 390–392, 2000.

EIT in hollow‐core fibers for optical communications devices

ABSTRACT We developed an experimental setup for electromagnetically induced transparency able to manufacture microcells, suitable for optical fiber communications technology. A hollow‐core photonic crystal fiber (HC‐PCF) is filled with acetylene, to work in the 1500 nm telecommunications window. We used a HC‐PCF with the mode‐field diameter compatible with standard single‐mode fibers, with the purpose of achieving low‐loss splicing and enabling us to work at low pumping powers. This allows to induce a narrow transparency window, which can be spectrally adjusted and dynamically controlled. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 57:348–352, 2015
