Problems solved by technology

At present, the commonly used variable optical delay line is composed of multiple optical fibers or optical waveguides, and the length of each optical path is different. Through the selection of cascaded optical switches, the optical signal can pass through optical fibers or waveguides of different lengths to obtain different delay times. , but for now, the optical delay line has several disadvantages: 1. The incrementally adjustable delay line has a large delay range, but it is not continuously adjustable; 2. The continuously a
