“…However, in these seminal works, optical frequency combs were not used and the pulse shapers were not designed to operate in the line-by-line regime. It is noteworthy that high resolution polarization pulse shapers have been implemented, however focusing on the compensation of polarization mode dispersions [21] rather than on vectorial waveform synthesis.…”

Vectorial optical arbitrary waveform generation is experimentally demonstrated by applying polarization line-by-line pulse shaping on a phase-modulated continuous laser frequency comb. Polarization shaped optical waveforms extending a 50-ps time window are successfully synthesized. Temporal Talbot effect is extended into the vectorial regime, where the distinct periodic temporal phases of the two orthogonally polarized pulse trains are exploited. In one example, we generate repetition-rate doubled circularly polarized pulses with alternating pulse-by-pulse handedness. In another example, complex instantaneous field polarizations are synthesized through the combination of line-by-line amplitude and temporal Talbot phase shaping. Our experimental results are measured through a dual-quadrature spectral interferometry system and are found in excellent agreements to the applied shaping controls.

We propose and demonstrate a novel first-order polarization mode dispersion (PMD) compensator separating principal-states-of-polarization (PSP) control from differential-group-delay (DGD) control by using two independent feedback monitoring signals. To verify the proposed operating principle, we fabricated an automatically adaptive module-type 40-Gb/s PMD compensator on printed circuit boards. The results show that unlike previous typical compensation method of controlling alternately PSP and DGD, the proposed scheme provides independent continuous PSP tracking regardless of DGD control by delay line under rapidly varying PSP condition, thus resulting in stable compensated signal with reduction in compensation time.
