Abstract

The invention discloses a high-speed adjustable optical comb filter. A single optical fiber collimator, a first polarized displacement crystal, a first half wave plate cluster, a birefringent retarding crystal, a second half wave plate cluster, an electro-optical retarder, a third half wave plate cluster, a second polarized displacement crystal, a fourth half wave plate cluster, a roof prism, a third polarized displacement crystal and a double optical fiber collimator are sequentially placed in the same horizontal optical path direction; parallel beams separated by the second polarized displacement crystal are collimated and coupled to the double optical fiber collimator via the roof prism and the third polarized displacement crystal; and high-speed adjustable central wavelength of the optical comb filter can be realized by controlling the externally applied voltage of the electro-optical retarder. The invention achieves high-speed dynamic adjustability of the central wavelength of the comb filter and has the characteristics of compact structure, convenient manufacturing and stable and reliable performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical fiber communication, in particular to a high-speed adjustable optical comb filter. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of optical fiber communication technology and the maturity of multimedia communication technology, people's demand for data bandwidth is increasing. The development of Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology has greatly eased the increasing pressure of communication traffic. The optical comb filter is an excellent DWDM device. In addition to being used for wavelength division multiplexing / demultiplexing, it can also be used to upgrade the system capacity and provide more convenient conditions for the development of optical fiber communication. In addition, as an efficient wavelength selective filter, the optical comb filter can also be used in multi-wavelength lasers, photoelectric measurement systems and all-optical information processing.
