Time-delay to intensity mapping based on a second-order optical integrator: application to optical arbitrary waveform generation

Abstract: We propose and validate experimentally a time-delay to intensity mapping process based on second-order optical integrators. This mapping provides dynamic control of the intensity modulation profile of a waveform based on a purely passive and linear process. In particular, we can realize linear intensity control by tuning the time-delay between two optical pulses launched into a second-order optical integrator. We suggest and experimentally prove the use of this mapping process for reconfigurable optical arbitr… Show more

“…2(d). Optical arbitrary waveform generation (OAWG) is widely applied in various fields, such as high speed optical communications [24], ultra-wideband signals [2], radar systems [25], all-optical signal processing including optical differentiator [26] and optical integrator [27,28]. Besides, the photonic-based high frequency microwave signal generation also shows great importance in application, since it is superior to the traditional methods in many aspects such as speed, bandwidth and power consumption, thanks to the absence of electronic bottleneck.…”

“…Over the past few years, the emergence of optical computing has provided the possibility to break several limitations of conventional signal processors [6]. Such an EM-wave-based computing strategy avoids analog-to-digital conversion and allows ultra-high-speed massively parallel operations [7], which has been proven to have great potential in temporal integration and differentiation [8,9], Hilbert transformation [10], spatial differentiators [11], logic gate [12], and arbitrary waveform generation [13].…”
