Cascaded double ring resonator filter with integrated SOAs

Optics InfoBase Conference Papers

Tauke-Pedretti, Anna; Vawter, Gregory A.; Skogen, Erik J.; Peake, Gregory M.; Overberg, Mark E.; Alford, Charles; Torres, David; Cajas, Florante; Kalivoda, James

We present a filter consisting of cascaded ring resonators with integrated SOAs. The filter demonstrates an extinction ratio >30 dB, a free spectral range of 56 GHz and a FWHM bandwidth of 3 GHz. © 2010 Optical Society of America.

Mutual injection locking of monolithically integrated coupled-cavity DBR lasers

IEEE Photonics Technology Letters

Tauke-Pedretti, Anna; Vawter, Gregory A.; Skogen, Erik J.; Peake, Gregory M.; Overberg, Mark E.; Alford, Charles A.; Chow, Weng W.; Yang, Zhenshan Y.; Torres, David; Cajas, Florante

We present a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) composed of two strongly coupled distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) lasers. This PIC utilizes the dynamics of mutual injection locking to increase the relaxation resonance frequency from 3 GHz to beyond 30 GHz. Mutual injection-locking and external injection-locking operation are compared. © 2011 IEEE.

Wide dynamic range of ring resonator channel-dropping filters with integrated SOAs

2011 Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exposition and the National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference, OFC/NFOEC 2011

Vawter, Gregory A.; Tauke-Pedretti, Anna; Skogen, Erik J.

We present the first complete simulation of the dynamic range and noise of InGaAsP multi-ring channel-drop filters with internal SOAs. The results show gain saturation, and spontaneous emission noise limit the dynamic range. © 2011 Optical Society of America.

Enhanced frequency response in monolithically integrated coupled cavity lasers and electro-absorption modulator

Vawter, Gregory A.; Wendt, J.R.; Alford, Charles A.; Skogen, Erik J.; Overberg, Mark E.; Peake, Gregory M.; Chow, Weng W.; Yang, Zhenshan Y.

We present the bandwidth enhancement of an EAM monolithically integrated with two mutually injection-locked lasers. An improvement in the modulation efficiency and bandwidth are shown with mutual injection locking.

Injection-locked composite lasers for mm-wave modulation : LDRD 117819 final report

Vawter, Gregory A.; Skogen, Erik J.; Chow, Weng W.; Overberg, Mark E.; Peake, Gregory M.; Wendt, J.R.

This report summarizes a 3-year LDRD program at Sandia National Laboratories exploring mutual injection locking of composite-cavity lasers for enhanced modulation responses. The program focused on developing a fundamental understanding of the frequency enhancement previously demonstrated for optically injection locked lasers. This was then applied to the development of a theoretical description of strongly coupled laser microsystems. This understanding was validated experimentally with a novel 'photonic lab bench on a chip'.
