Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of microwave photon and optical communication technology, and in particular to an all-optical microwave oscillator, in particular to a single longitudinal mode all-optical microwave oscillator based on torsional radial mode parity-time symmetry. Background Art
[0002] An all-optical microwave oscillator is an advanced system that combines optical and microwave technologies, designed to overcome the limitations of traditional microwave oscillators in terms of frequency stability, low noise, and high precision. Traditional microwave oscillators, such as quartz oscillators based on electronic components, often face performance bottlenecks under the requirements of high frequency and low phase noise. Optical technology provides extremely high frequency accuracy and stability, becoming an important way to solve this problem. All-optical microwave oscillators usually rely on lasers, fiber frequency combs, and nonlinear optical effects. By converting optical signals into microwave frequency band signals, they can generate low-noise, high-stability microwave signals.
[0003] The generation of microwave oscillation signals includes optoelectronic oscillators and all-optical microwave oscillators. Y. London et al. proposed an optoelectronic oscillator based on forward Brillouin scattering of the acoustic mode of a standard single-mode optical fiber. The experiment produced an optoelectronic oscillator based on R 0,7 Y.Liu et al. proposed a dual-cavity optomechanical microwave oscillator (OM-MO) based on the radial acoustic mode of a single-mode fiber (SMF), which realizes the microwave oscillation signal based on R 0,7 Single-frequency output of microwave photons in acoustic mode. Since optoelectronic oscillators require electro-optical modulators (EOMs) for feedback modulation and optoelectronic converters for optoelectronic conversion, this increases the complexity of microwave photon generation devices. All-optical microwave oscillators are relatively simple in structure and low in cost, avoiding the complex circuit design in traditional optoelectronic oscillators, making single-longitudinal-mode forward Brillouin scattering all-optical microwave oscillators more compact and easy to integrate, suitable for high-frequency and high-stability requirements in modern communication systems. However, all-optical microwave oscillators previously studied have all focused on radial acoustic modes, with almost no research on polarization-sensitive torsional radial acoustic modes. In addition, the generation of a single longitudinal mode is achieved only by matching different comb teeth through the cursor effect to achieve the effect of suppressing the side mode, wasting more energy on the side mode, which cannot be reasonably converted into the main mode, and there are deficiencies. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to overcome the technical defects of the existing microwave photon generating devices with complex structures, the lack of research on torsional radial acoustic modes in all-optical microwave oscillators, and the waste of a lot of energy in the generation of single longitudinal modes, the present invention provides a single longitudinal mode all-optical microwave oscillator based on the parity-time symmetry of torsional radial modes.
[0005] The invention discloses a single longitudinal mode all-optical microwave oscillator based on torsional radial mode parity-time symmetry, comprising a self-excited erbium-doped fiber amplifier, a tunable optical filter, an isolator, a circulator, a parity-time symmetric Sagnac ring, a first splitter coupler, a second splitter coupler, a first polarization controller, a second polarization controller, a single-mode optical fiber, a polarizer, a spectrometer, a photodetector and a spectrum analyzer; the output end of the self-excited erbium-doped fiber amplifier is connected to the port a of the circulator through the tunable optical filter and the isolator in sequence, the port b of the circulator is connected to the parity-time symmetric Sagnac ring, the port c of the circulator is connected to the input end a of the first splitter coupler, the output end b of the first splitter coupler is connected to the input end of the self-excited erbium-doped fiber amplifier through the first polarization controller, the single-mode optical fiber, the second polarization controller and the polarizer in sequence, and the output end of the first splitter coupler is connected to the input end of the self-excited erbium-doped fiber amplifier through the first polarization controller, the single-mode optical fiber, the second polarization controller and the polarizer. c is connected to the input end a of the second optical splitter coupler, the output end b of the second optical splitter coupler is connected to the spectrometer, and the output end c of the second optical splitter coupler is connected to the spectrum analyzer through a photodetector; the parity-time symmetric Sagnac ring includes a third optical splitter coupler, a third polarization controller, a fourth polarization controller and a polarization beam splitter, the input end a of the third optical splitter coupler is connected to the port b of the circulator, the output end b of the third optical splitter coupler is connected to the port b of the polarization beam splitter through the third polarization controller, and the output end c of the third optical splitter coupler is connected to the port a of the polarization beam splitter through the fourth polarization controller; the splitting ratio of the output end b of the first optical splitter coupler and the output end c of the splitter is 90:10; the splitting ratio of the output end b of the second optical splitter coupler and the output end c of the splitter is 90:10; the splitting ratio of the output end b of the third optical splitter coupler and the output end c of the splitter is 50:50.
[0006] The pump light with a maximum pump power of 25dBm provided by the self-excited erbium-doped fiber amplifier is input into a tunable optical filter for selecting the forward spontaneous Brillouin scattering pump wavelength. The isolator ensures the clockwise unidirectional propagation of the light, and then it is input into the parity-time symmetric Sagnac ring through the port a of the circulator, so that it reaches the parity-time symmetry breaking state to realize single longitudinal mode output. The output end b of the first splitter coupler inputs 90% of the light into a nonlinear polarization rotation component composed of a polarizer and a first polarization controller and a second polarization controller to realize passive mode locking, and uses a single-mode optical fiber as a forward stimulated Brillouin scattering gain fiber for selective amplification of the longitudinal mode. The output end c of the first optical splitter coupler inputs 10% of the light to the second optical splitter coupler to achieve output, the output end b of the second optical splitter coupler directly inputs 90% of the light output signal into the spectrometer for observation, and the output end c of the second optical splitter coupler beats 10% of the light output signal through the photodetector, and then outputs the signal to the spectrum analyzer for testing, finally obtaining a single longitudinal mode all-optical microwave oscillator based on torsional radial mode parity-time symmetry.
[0007] When the parity-time symmetric Sagnac ring is working, stimulated Brillouin scattered light is input into the parity-time symmetric Sagnac ring through port a of the circulator, and the incident light is divided into two paths, moving in clockwise and counterclockwise directions to form two mutually coupled rings, one with gain and the other with loss. By adjusting the third polarization controller and the fourth polarization controller, the gain and loss can be precisely controlled to achieve a parity-time symmetry breaking state and realize single longitudinal mode output.
[0008] The single longitudinal mode all-optical microwave oscillator described in the present invention has unique advantages. Forward Brillouin scattering uses the interaction between light and sound waves to generate microwave signals. This process can provide very high frequency stability. At the same time, the single longitudinal mode oscillator avoids the mode noise introduced by the multi-longitudinal mode oscillator, and has important advantages in low phase noise and low-frequency drift. It has broad application prospects in quantum communication, high-precision clocks, 5G and higher-frequency wireless communication systems. In addition, the present invention is based on the torsional radial acoustic mode, adopts a parity-time symmetric loop structure, and uses the parity-time symmetry with its own loss component to achieve a single longitudinal mode signal output with a high side mode suppression ratio in the inherent multi-mode cavity. The remaining side mode energy can also be transferred to the main mode in the resonant system, solving the problem of incomplete energy utilization. And the research based on the torsional radial acoustic mode is of great significance in the application of optical fiber sensing because of its polarization sensitivity and complex tensor characteristics.

[0028] The pump light with a maximum pump power of 25 dBm provided by the self-excited erbium-doped fiber amplifier 1 (EDFA, EDFA-C-25-FA-B) is input into a tunable optical filter 2 (TOF, XTM-50-SCL-SM) for selecting the forward spontaneous Brillouin scattering pump wavelength. The isolator 3 ensures the clockwise unidirectional propagation of the light, and then inputs it into the parity-time symmetric Sagnac ring 5 through the port a of the circulator 4, so that it reaches the parity-time symmetry breaking state to realize single longitudinal mode output.

[0030] The single longitudinal mode all-optical microwave oscillator described in the present invention has unique advantages. Forward Brillouin scattering uses the interaction between light and sound waves to generate microwave signals. This process can provide very high frequency stability. At the same time, the single longitudinal mode oscillator avoids the mode noise introduced by the multi-longitudinal mode oscillator, and has important advantages in low phase noise and low-frequency drift. It has broad application prospects in quantum communication, high-precision clocks, 5G and higher-frequency wireless communication systems. In addition, the present invention is based on the torsional radial acoustic mode, adopts a parity-time symmetric loop structure, and uses the parity-time symmetry with its own loss component to achieve a single longitudinal mode signal output with a high side mode suppression ratio in the inherent multi-mode cavity. The remaining side mode energy can also be transferred to the main mode in the resonant system, solving the problem of incomplete energy utilization. And the research based on the torsional radial acoustic mode is of great significance in the application of optical fiber sensing because of its polarization sensitivity and complex tensor characteristics.
[0031] Based on the above embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the length of the single-mode optical fiber 8 is 5000 m.
[0032] On the basis of the above embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the operating wavelength of the self-excited erbium-doped fiber amplifier 1 is 1550 nm, and the maximum output power is 25 dBm.
[0033] On the basis of the above embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the wavelength range of the spectrometer 10 is 600-1700 nm, the wavelength resolution is 0.02-2 nm, the wavelength linearity is 0.01-0.02, and the measurement power range is -90-20 dBm.
[0034] On the basis of the above embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the bandwidth of the photodetector 11 is 50 GHz, and the linear response of the optical input power is 10 dBm.
[0035] On the basis of the above embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the frequency range of the spectrum analyzer 12 is 300kHz to 20GHz, the frequency resolution is 1Hz, and the intermediate frequency line width is 10Hz to 1.5MHz; when the frequency range is 1MHz to 6GHz, the power range is -85dBm to 10dBm.
[0036] The condition that an all-optical microwave oscillator based on torsional radial mode should satisfy is the repetition rate f N (integer multiples of f) and TR 2,m (m=1, 2, 3...) The acoustic resonance frequencies are equal or the difference is close to zero, where f N =Nc / nL (N=1, 2, 3), n is the effective refractive index of the single-mode optical fiber 8, c is the speed of light in a vacuum, and L is the length of the laser cavity. 2,7 is about 140MHz, and the laser cavity length is designed to be L = 5km, so that f = 0.0414MHz and f N (N=3381)≤140MHz to meet the matching condition.
[0037] When the pulse energy Ep reaches a threshold, the optical pulse modulates the refractive index through the electrostrictive effect, which amplifies the acoustic wave amplitude. In turn, the forward stimulated Brillouin scattering process enhances the frequency f N The sound wave can be represented as
[0038]
[0039] where γe is the electrostriction coefficient, Q is the overlap integral between the fundamental optical mode and the acoustic mode, and ρ a (r, θ) is TR 2,mThe dimensionless acoustic profile of the forward stimulated Brillouin scattering acoustic mode, where q is the propagation constant along the axis of the single-mode fiber 8, A is the mode area of the fundamental optical mode in the single-mode fiber 8, ρ0 is the density of silica, and Γ B is the Brillouin linewidth, is the relative phase shift between the acoustic wave and its driving pulse train, and is given by:
[0040]
[0041] According to the phase matching condition, when is in the range (0, π), acoustic gain appears, and when the acoustic wave amplitude reaches its maximum value.
[0042] Select the TR 2,7 mode. Due to its highest forward stimulated Brillouin scattering gain coefficient, the output has a higher harmonic frequency and a higher side mode suppression ratio. The enhanced mode-locked oscillation effect of forward stimulated Brillouin scattering of the TR 2,7 mode is achieved by adjusting the PC to match the phase matching condition.
[0043] In a parity-time symmetric system, the characteristic frequency is:
[0044]
[0045] where ω n is the nth characteristic frequency of the two loops, and represent the gain coefficients of the two loops of the nth mode, and κ n represents the coupling coefficient between the two loops of the nth mode. Under the parity-time symmetric condition, that is, the gain of one loop is equal to the loss of the other loop;
[0046]
[0047] then Equation (3) can be rewritten as:
[0048]
[0049] Under the condition of κ n > g n the all-optical microwave oscillator experiences bounded neutral oscillation, indicating that the parity-time symmetry is invariant. In contrast, under the condition of κ n < g n it experiences conjugate oscillation modes and decaying modes, which means that the parity-time symmetry is broken. Obviously, when only the mode with the maximum gain is considered, we assume it is the 0th mode, under the condition of κ0 < g0, and for all other modes κ n > g nUnder the condition of (n≠0), the 0th-order symmetric mode selective oscillation is broken and the other complete modes are suppressed. When only one mode has an amplification, a single-mode oscillation all-optical microwave oscillator can also be realized, and the gain contrast g is not exceeded. max , g max for:
[0050] g max =g0-g1 (6),
[0051] Among them, g0 is the gain of the oscillation mode with the largest gain, and g1 is the gain of the mode with the second largest gain.
[0052] Since g0>g1, the forward stimulated Brillouin scattering gain difference is significantly enhanced, ensuring a stable single longitudinal mode oscillation signal of the main mode.
[0053] Narrow Linewidth TR Generated by All-Optical Microwave Oscillator 2,7 Mode microwave photons are realized by reducing the intrinsic linewidth of the passive resonator. The calculation formula of the linewidth of the all-optical microwave oscillator is:
[0054]
[0055] in, is the intrinsic linewidth of the passive resonant cavity, Δυ B It is TR 2,7 mode gain bandwidth, R is the optical amplitude feedback coefficient of the ring cavity, c is the speed of light in vacuum, L is the length of the fiber ring cavity, n is the refractive index of the single-mode fiber 8, is the intensity coupling coefficient, and γ0 is the coupler insertion loss.
[0056] from Figure 3 It can be concluded that the present invention realizes the TR 2,7 mode-locked oscillator output.
[0057] from Figure 4 It can be concluded that the present invention realizes the TR 2,7 The narrow linewidth oscillation signal output of the mode is greatly affected by noise, and the line shape changes. There are errors in fitting with the Lorentz curve, and it is difficult to accurately reflect its linewidth level. However, its 20dB linewidth is less affected by noise, so the 20dB linewidth is used to calculate the linewidth of this all-optical microwave oscillator, and the actual 3dB linewidth is 6.18Hz.
[0058] from Figure 5 It can be concluded that the present invention realizes the TR 2,7 The single longitudinal mode oscillation output of the mode, the side mode is well suppressed under the parity-time symmetry breaking state, and the side mode suppression ratio is relatively improved by 30.3dB.
