Method for realizing high-speed optical switch response and ultra-high-speed optical modulation optical switch device

Abstract

The invention provides a method for realizing high-speed optical switch response and an ultra-high-speed optical modulation optical switch device. High-power pulse laser is adopted, the defect that the propagation distance of a diffraction effect exceeds several times of Rayleigh length can be eliminated on the basis of the self-focusing effect and plasma defocusing effect of the laser in a transmission process; and therefore, an optical filament can be obtained. A large number of physical effects are involved in a laser filamentation process; an optical filament generation area is accompaniedby refractive index modulation, the response speed of the refractive index modulation is related to the pulse width and power of ultrafast laser; and when the peak power of the ultrafast laser reaches a certain threshold value, the frequency of the response of a liquid generated optical filament to refractive index modulation can reach gigahertz. The ultra-high-speed refractive index modulation is applied to an optical modulation optical switch to realize ultra-high-speed optical switch response.
